DD's sleep is getting to the stage where its pretty non-existant day and night and is starting to affect my relationship with my son and my partner. DP works 7-5pm so he needs sleep as doesy 7yo but no one is getting a chance at a decent sleep because of her.
During the day i'm pretty much too tired to go any where although force myself some days but this is getting less and in the evenings I have cooking to do, homework, packed lunch to make, tidying, sorting uniform so don't get to sit down until about 9pm, DP and I are also getting increasingly ratty with DD, DS and each other.
DD's sleep pattern has been off since about 19 Weeks before which age would get up twice in the night for 10 minutes. 19-24 Weeks she woke hourly fir feeds and now she's in bed at 7.30 up at 12 and 2 then wide awake at 3!! Npthing works to get her back to sleep at this point apart from sitting up whilst she suckles but as soon as I move she stats screaming because she's so tired.
DP has taken to getting up at 3 as he can't get back to asleep but she screams if he takes her down stairs
