Mommies I need advice.... So last night was night 15 of me sleep training my daughter from sleeping with me to now sleeping in her new crib. It has been EXHAUSTING! When she slept with me she would sleep straight throughout the night. Now she wakes up at the least, 5 times throughout the night. She has waken up at most 8/9 times at night. There have been times where I’m patting her for an 1 hour-2hours straight to get her back to sleep when she has waken up at one of those times🥵. So I have felt like a complete failure because I am delirious due to sleep deprivation, and I’m just so exhausted from this whole journey and can’t catch up with my sleep that when she’s waken up the past two nights at 7am, I haven’t been able to push through my exhaustion and I just put her in the bed with me for an hour or an hour and a half until we wake up just so I can get a little sleep. I don’t want to confuse her and I don’t want all the work I’ve done so far to be a waste because of putting her in bed with me these past two times. I don’t have anyone to take turns with me because I’m a single mom. And at times my bed wakes her back up after putting her to sleep because it’s so noisy 🙄. I’m working on that part, lol. I’ve let her sleep with a shirt of mine that smelled like me 3 nights and it didn’t help. I’ve even given her a bed baby that she sleeps with. What would you guys do in my case.??
Y'all I feel so helpless😭 I wake up at sunrise to undress my daughter and lay her in her bed in front of the window for her to get sunlight ... I worry about her getting sunburn😔
So we got in super late last night. Had to carry my daughter to bed. She had the nerve to try and wake me up at 7:30am saying she wanted breakfast. Smh (She wanted me to fix her a spread)🙄 I told her to choose some cereal. I'll fix her a bowl. Of course there wasn't any cereal that she wanted today 😴 I told her spoiled ass to figure it out and I went back to sleep 😂🤣 She ate an eggo.
Fight or Flight So last night my SO fell asleep on the couch. I came downstairs to get him to come up to bed.
Her being up kicking at night in my belly is NOTHING compared to her waking & crying... lord I’m so sleepy 😩

@kansas_sagesmomma, I got a air mattress for myself. Put it up againest her toddler bed and held her hand till she fell asleep. The first night she woke up twice to make sure I was still there and after that she's slept all night through. I'm gonna stay doing it for probably 2 weeks or so. Then after she's asleep I'm gonna go back to my own bed. So far it's been great. She's slept all night all this week in her own bed but with me beside her. I haven't tried to leave yet like I say I'm gonna give it another week or two.
