Hi All,
We are HUGE believers in the baby whisperer methods- they have all worked for us up until this point. My 14 month old started to wake at night- this has been for a couple of months now- in between we have traveled for the holidays, have had guests in and out of town, teething, and have had colds on and off. Every time we are back to normal routines once a visitor has left, cold is gone, or travel is over. For the most part when any of these are going on we still stick to our daily routine, eating, naps, and bed time, but bedtime isn't as easy as the rest. So I read what to do to get us sleeping through the night again and did PD and skipped the PU part. Then would put my hand on her chest or back until she calmed down... longer story short, she now wakes at night stands up and screams and cries, I come in and PD- if I move my hand off of her she gets up and cries and screams... so I need to leave my hand on her until she has fallen asleep. This can go on for 10 minutes multiple times at night, or up to 4 hours or every hour, it varies. I am so lost on what to do now. I believe I fell into AP with the hand resting on her that I now don't know what to do to correct this. I am not sure she knows how to self sooth anymore...
?
