Ok I know there are so many posts but I feel we need a tailorized plan because our daughter just has such sporadic sleep. We have a 10 month old. At night we start with dinner usually around 6-7 and a bath at 8pm. We put her in her Pj's, brush her little teeth, do her iron supplement and gas med the doctor recommended, then at some point she gets drowsy and falls asleep between 830 and 10pm.. In our arms. She wont fall asleep in the crib and we have sat for 2 hours patting her trying to.. so we opt to put her in the crib sleeping. Then she wakes at around 1am, 4am, and 7am, and again at 9am roughly if she is not in the bed 😥. In the bed she sleeps thru the night...
Some nights we pat her and she falls asleep again in her crib but still wakes up like a younger baby. One night she slept all night. Some nights in an all out fight and she will not sleep at all. Lord help us we are first time parents and EXHAUSTED and I am tired of cosleeping because she is getting bigger and does take up space in addition to it being unsafe. I mean we love love love our baby but we are TIRED. Thanks in advance !
