Sleep deprived

**Ashleighkatee93** · 16-05-2012 23:24

My little girl is 6 months old and she usually sleeps through the night in her cot in her room, we recently moved house and now she wakes up several times in the night. what can I do to get her use to her cot again, and her new room. She sleeps so easy when I bring her to bed with me and i wait for her to be in a deep sleep before i move her, but once I put her back in her cot she just keeps waking. I'm loosing so much sleep and it's so stressful. I feel like I don't have any energy to play with her during the day anymore because I'm constantly up and down during the night. Help!?!?!?

Keep her in bed with you or try sleeping in her room for a bit

Agree with Thermolicious.

Also we recently finished off reno's to upstairs so DD's bedroom was moved up and a bit further from the hustle and bustle of the rest of the house. It's helped with getting her to sleep initially but took a while for her to get used to it as in sleeping through again.

Could you try the sleeping out method with her? Google it, I didn't follow it to the letter, I cuddled DS when he needed one.

Oh my, the same thing happened to my DD. We moved when DD was 6mths and she's never been the same since. Constant nightwaking and has only slept thru by fluke a handful of times. Unfortunately, I can't offer advice (we're just about to start SOS) but want to give you lots and lots of hugs, it's a horrible road to travel when you're sleep deprived.

My vote is to either co-sleep with her in your bed or set up a mattress on the floor in her room and sleep there with her either in the cot or on the cot mattress on floor next to you.

Babies 6-12mths go through huge emotional/mental growth spurts plus with separation anxiety - sleep is generally terrible. my advice is to ride it out. It will end eventually why stress you and bub out in the meantime

I agree with Izzy's Mummy. I feel much more rested when I've had DS in bed with me even though he wakes just a much as when he's on his own. And it's nice to snuggle, he doesn't let me cuddle him during the day!
