She's never been a baby with a lot of sleep crutches. She doesn't use a paci, she doesn't like to be rocked, she weaned herself at 6 months so she's on bottles now and she generally gets one before naps/ bedtime but doens't fall asleep while eating. She does fight sleep like no other baby I've ever known though. That kid will happily go along for hours and hours without sleep and might show a few signs of sleepiness but no fussiness. Sometimes it can be difficult to get her to take a nap or go to bed but once you get her to a drowsy state she's easily laid down and falls to sleep either with a pat just a hand on her back or sometimes even just standing in the room with her. However, if you are not present the kid won't go to sleep and i've tried all the PUPD, WIWO, etc and she just carries on for hours. I think this is the reason she continues to wake frequently at night. The other factor is she's been a co-sleeper from about 5 am on since she was born but she's been demanding to come to bed earlier and earlier in the night too which is another factor I know is contributing. Ideas on how to sleep train? I've tried the usual like I said above which worked with our twins but over a week later we've made no progress.
