This has come at perfect timing. 12mo DS currently does go to sleep in his cot, on his own, with just me sitting on other side of the room but he’s still waking for feeds 3-4 times a night and I’m exhausted. I want this sorted by Christmas! We don’t live in UK at the moment and we’re travelling back home for Christmas and will be staying with family and it would just be amazing if we could transform him in to a great sleeper by then! Maybe DH and I could even slip out for a meal once he’s down while we have babysitters around- something we’ve only done once since he was born and it was a disaster!!!



We started doing gradual retreat back in September back when he was waking 9+ times a night and saw a massive improvement really quickly but since then we’ve sort of plateaued and I think now the only way forward it to cut the feeding through the night. Not sure how to do this, are you going completely cold turkey? I can’t imagine him getting through the night or any of us getting any sleep without feeding him at all..



Sorry for the waffle, in short- I’m in!!
