My wife went to a council-run sleep session today and got a few tips. We'll see how they go. I'm always hopeful.

But it's all about reading the signs. He still puts up a bit of a protest, but overall, he's getting there. Fingers crossed.

We had a baby who didn't sleep at night either - thank heavens for Tresillian. #2 (close to Freddy's age) has been kinder to us... Sleep school is a much more gentle method for parents and baby than SOS if you need more support. Life is hard when babies sleep strike! Hope your wife is fully recovered.Lexinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3014391562590090906.post-22021782106951675152013-09-24T16:33:28.902+10:002013-09-24T16:33:28.902+10:00Freddy sounds like my eldest boy.

I tried Ms Tizzie Hall too but she stressed me out too, when Mr C would not follow the books instructions. I brought myself a sling and Mr C would fall asleep in that during the day. The best & only book I followed was Baby Love by Robin Barker. Mr C is now 5 and sleeps from 7pm to 6am, no waking up. It will get better, eventually...Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15675452153227875223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3014391562590090906.post-20368564672185569132013-09-24T11:39:07.084+10:002013-09-24T11:39:07.084+10:00You're right to put the book down!
