We have a 9 month old cutie. She enjoys being rocked or walked to sleep, and I love cuddling with her and putting her to sleep this way. This is something I am not willing to give up.
BUT she wakes up in the middle of the night and wants to play or get in but with us. She can not get comfortable and tousles while I am trying to rock or walk her back to sleep. She does not seem comfortable but she will not go back to sleep on her own, even though she is exhausted.
I have tried the 'cry it out' method a few times but I can not handle listening to her cry that long knowing that it is because she wants to be cuddled.
Is this just something that I need to wait out and eventually she will sleep though the night without waking?
Believe it or not, this is baby number 4... but I never had these issues with the other 3.. lol The were all sleeping through the night by 2 and 3 months. I guess I was lucky.. lol
Thanks for your suggestions.
