I am in need of help as my 14 month old boy has terrible sleep problems. He needs motion to go to sleep which means either myself or my husband have to take him out in the pram at night to get him to fall asleep come wind, rain or shine. We have tried controlled crying a couple of times and it hasn't worked. He gets himself so worked up that he is making himself sick and soiling his nappy. He is wet with sweat from the crying and there is no way that he would then drop off to sleep. I have a 4 year old daughter and controlled crying worked with her and she took to it straight away, so I know it's not down to me not trying enough. Once he is asleep we used to put him into his cot but he would wake up a couple of times even before we would go to bed and would always end up in our bed. We don't even bother doing this and just leave him in the pram till we go and then put him straight into our bed just so we can get a few more hours of sleep. As well as having problems getting to sleep once he is asleep he can wake up during the night and can be wide awake and be up for at least 2 - 3 hours at a time. Nothing will get him to sleep unless he is being rocked after milk and having a play. I am feeling so lost as not sure what to do and worry that I may have left it to late to fix. Have spoken to my GP but they were useless and have been referred to a child Psychotherapist. I have no idea what they can suggest but thought I would see if anyone out there could help me. Sorry for all the waffle. Thanks for reading my plea!
