My LO used to sleep like a dream from 5-9 months, he is now 10 months but for the last 4 weeks he has been waking up every single night about 15-20 times a night!!!! (im not even joking!!) OH and I are up and down like yo-yo's
When he wakes up we would start off just rubbing his tummy gently or his head till he dropped off to sleep again but he would wake up again 20 mins later gaurenteed!! It has got so bad that OH and I give in and take him out of his cot and rock him back to sleep, well, that was short lived, even that doesnt work anymore!!! LO just wont settle untill he comes into bed with us!! OH works and gets up early, the sleepless nights are causing him to make mistakes at work which he cannot afford to do! Im so tired I can barely get the energy to play with LO or even stay awake the next day!!
If I try the Control Crying method it makes him worse, he screams so loud i wonder if our whole street can here. He just stands up holds onto the cotbed and jumps up and down!! Everytime I go back into his room to lay him on his back and encourage him to go back to sleep he just flips himself over again, crawls to the end of the cotbed, stands up and starts jumping!!
He has 3 big meals a day + snacks, around 20oz of milk a day (today i even gave him an extra 5oz bottle mid morning and a night feed at 10.30pm of 8oz) so hes had 33oz of milk today + meals and snacks and its made no difference to his sleep!!!
What am I doing wrong???? Hes not routing for his dummy, hes been rejecting it the last couple of nights. Hes been teething on and off since he was 3 months old and he STILL DOESNT have any teeth (and no im quite sure this is not a "teething stage")
Oh god, im at the end of my teather
Im pregnant again, my back is killing me and im really starting to wonder if me and OH have done the right things having another baby so early, how can I possible look after 2 babies when I cant even get things right with my first LO!!
Im sorry, i just feel so down, so tired, so........crap!!
Help, pleaseeeeeeeee
