@Alice it's crazy isn't it! I used to be able to put her down so easily, she'd be able to self soothe the lot. I'm resorting to the crying out method at minute and I'm an 1 hrs 15 min in 😫 I've been on floor in her room, she was asleep.. crawled out. Got to my bed, screaming again. Never ending lol I feel so bad, but I need my nigjts back. I'm going to bed at 7 every night with her in my bed 🙈 xx
I’m so sorry that sounds really hard. If she falls asleep happily in your bed are you able to transfer her to her cot or does she wake straight away? I don’t know how to even get my little one to sleep happily, even rocking she’s upset!
I’m in the same position 6 weeks in (2 weeks being pretty ill)with my 11 month old! I have resorted to having her fall asleep in our bed (rocking somehow has stopped working), then transfer her to her cot. Then I have put our travel cot up in my room so when she refuses to go back in her cot in the night, I put her in there and when she wakes in there somehow a ‘sh ah’ noise seems to calm her. This makes me think it’s a separation anxiety thing as she just needs to know I’m close!? Not sure if that helps and open to any tips as I am worried how I’m ever getting her out of our room and back in her cot all night again 🙈
It’s nice to know I’m not alone! It definitely feels like separation anxiety to me too x
I’ve been having this since October too. Even rocking her to sleep she is screaming. I’m sorry I don’t have any answers but just wanted to say you’re not alone. I can’t believe that a few months ago we were able to put her in her cot and she’d be able to settle herself to sleep!
