Just hoping someone can give me some advice as i feel i have tried everything and its really starting to wear thin now!
My son is 2 next month. He has always gone down to sleep very easily. He has his blanket and his dummy and when you put him down for his nap or to bed you hardly hear a peep out of him. However he wakes in the night constantly. We give him a non spill beaker of milk when he first wakes up (usually midnight but can range from 10-5) which he will drink and then put his dummy (which we place in his hand whilst he is drinking) back in and go back to sleep. But he is still waking after this lately and he screams and yells, you haven't heard anything like it, he is SO loud (he has been compared to an air raid siren) and he will not give in. We have tried to ignore him but he is so loud it is impossible. We have a 5 year old daughter who is an excellent sleeper and luckily sleeps through his night time tirade and has been a good sleeper since 1y/o. We have another daughter due in July and I am starting to really worry that I am going to get no sleep with him still waking and a newborn to deal with.
Any help would be REALLY appreciated! thanks
