Another sleep q

bstar · 2012-10-31 04:46:17

T (7 months now) has slept from 7-630 since she was 11 weeks old with the odd night of needing a bottle around 3 am. But for the past month her sleep has been awful. Was putting it down to teeth/growth spurt etc but now hitting the fifth week and no teeth appearing or anything so looking other options. Shes going down…

Shes going down around 7 waking at 11ish absolutely hysterical screaming and fighting you when you pick her up sometimes not even awake so doesn't realise she has been lifted. Takes about an oz of milk and drops back off to sleep. Will wake up then around 1 have a cuddle and sleep. Then at 3 and drink 4oz and go back to sleep before waking up around 5-6 hysterically again and thats her for the day, no matter what we do.
Shes obviously not ready to wake up at this time as before she would wake up quietly and play until you lifted her.

I don't mind the waking up as its all part and parcel its the poor things hysteria I can't deal with. She will have had nurofen or calpol if we think shes teething but shes the same whether she gets it or not.

Any ideas?
