Literally could have wrote this myself. Then last night my baby slept the whole night in her cot. I done nothing differently. Perhaps a sleep progression and now through the other end of it. Hang in there đź©·

The first few nights were rough with constant back & fourth to lay her back down. But we started putting our daughter to bed wide awake and letting her go off to sleep on her own. We never let her cry, when she started to get whinge/cry, we’d go in and lay her down. This could be up to 15 times before she eventually went off. Now, she very rarely even stands up after we put her to bed and goes straight off to sleep. On the whole, she goes all night and sometimes have to pop in for a little resettle/ get dummy

My little girl mostly naps on me, sometimes I can get her in the cot but often we’re downstairs and so by the time I get to the cot it’s game over. She sleeps in her cot overnight with a couple of wakes and I feed her to sleep and feed her when she wakes. It’s not forever but it works for us for now. There’s a lot of separation anxiety at this age, maybe that’s why she wants to be near you. Is her room warm enough? That’s when the temp drops…

@Emily potentially! She is teething a hell of a lot as well at the moment🫠 thanku🫶🏻x

@Emma we still have her in our room at the moment, my partners daughter is 7 with ADHD and due to this we can’t allow babygirl to share a room with her to certain behaviours, our room is generally between 19-21 degrees so think she’s warm enough, she is definitely very attached to me at the minute though, I can’t leave the room without a tantrum so perhaps that’s it!x

@Gemma thankyou🫶🏻 will give this a go🤍

I was just at breaking point from being up several times in the night, get her back to sleep and within half hour she would wake again, so something had to give but didn’t want to do the more traditional sleep training, so we tried what we were comfortable with. Might be a case of trial and error with a few things to see what works for you and what you’re comfortable with
