Sleeeeeeeeeeep

So it has been a couple of months now that we went from months of straight through sleep to constant wake ups during the night.  And to boot instead of the great self settling G did (sometimes I just put her in the cot and walked out the door!!), every sleep is a battle - every sleep every day.  Its very demoralising to have to listen to her cry several times a day just to get her to go to sleep, especially when 70% of the time for day sleeps we will spend an hour battling and then she will sleep for 40mins tops!  Of course there are a lot of reasons why, teething, sickness and a general new awareness of the world.  So I am delving back into the world of sleep help books for babies.  Don't worry I am not going to go all Tizzie Hall on you.  I of course read Tizzie when I first had G as its such a popular book.  As soon as I read about schedules and waking babies up I was outta there!  But I will be checking her book again to pick up any tips that I might of missed the first time, I did take some of what she said originally and it worked for us.  Anyway I am borrowing a massive amount of sleep help books from the library and I will post up what works for us :-D.
