I'm sorry bighair12 it is so hard. Sleeplessness sucks. Will she take a pacifier?
She fights the pacifier. At night she screams and won't take it. I don't know if she likes to be so close or what. She is so exhausted!
Does she nap okay during the day? I forget if you work or not. She could be reverse cycling and nursing all night cuz she doesn't all day. I think P does that sometimes even if I'm not at work cuz she is so freaking nosy all day she barely eats. I can only feed her in the chair in her room unless her sister follows us in- then it's two sips and sit up to look around and I get sick of it real fast.
We are in sleep hell. It is affecting our marriage. She is cosleeping, she is continually attached to my boob. She won't even lay down in her crib. We created a monster. I am going to email a sleep consultant on Monday at work. I can't do the cry it out method. I am am miserable and so is she.
I'm so so sorry. My coworker worked with a sleep consultant for a similar problem and she helped them tremendously. I so hope it works for you too. Hugs!

I do work. I work four tens and am home three days. She takes bottles like a champ at daycare and we nurse ok at home. She is distracted by big sister a lot. She naps well at daycare but she takes naps on us at home. I have all the guilt and have allowed the lap naps because I miss the cuddles. So... it will get better. We are leaving next weekend so I don't want to start until after that. But then its game on.
I am sorry you felt a tooth!! I pray for your nips!
And of course now I feel terrible for sleep training this week if she had a tooth coming. But luckily it wasn't very traumatic. She seems crankier now. But that could just be Christmas.
