Really in need of some bedtime advice !!! Sorry it’s a long post!
I’ve got a 5 year old & a 14 month old . Lately I’ve been really struggling with the baby & her bedtime routine . Before the clocks went forward the baby was going to sleep by 7 each night & was ready . When the clocks changed she was not going down until 8pm . Ever since then I’ve never been able to get her back to going to sleep at a decent time . The baby has only one nap a day for around 1 hr 30mins . She’s been walking since 9 months & is running now so she’s always burning energy . Plus she goes to nursery three times a week , so she has plenty of interaction & playtime.
The baby also will only go to sleep with a bottle of milk and a cuddle . I cannot get her to go to sleep in her own cot . As soon as her head touches the cot she wakes !!! Throughout the night she wakes 1/2 times for a bottle of milk . Never does she sleep through . I’ve tried feeding her more food in the day but nothing seems to work . To stop the night feeds I tried giving her water , but I ended up giving that up as she was screaming for her milk .
My 5 year old has always been a rubbish sleeper and it wasn’t until she started full time school did she start sleeping through . Plus she always ends up coming into my bed in the middle of the night 😡 so I am used to not having good sleepers ! However I am unexpectedly due a baby the end of this year and I am so stressed out as I just cannot get the baby out of my bed and to bed at a nice time . Tonight I finally got her to sleep at 9:30 . She will wake once/twice and be up by 7:00 latest . Also the last week the baby has woken around 3am and is widos for about an hour 🙄
I really would appreciate anyone’s help and advice.
Thank you 🙂
