NO sleep. No SLEEP.

Hannah is wearing me down. I hardly get sustained rest so I'm falling sick alot. *sigh*. She is not sleeping through the night. We remember maybe three good weeks that she did. She's now 15 months old and never slept through the night. While some nights she is cold, the majority of the nights she's not. She's not hungry, the room isn't raining and we're not noisy folk. So why isn't she sleeping through the night?

NO discipline? Actually we have. When she was younger, we tried the controlled crying method and she would cry until she threw up. It worked when she was very young. She was perfect. Then we had visitors and travelling and that basically screwed it up... until now.

No consistency? We are rather consistent. I have a night time routine for her every night and she has had no issues falling asleep. It's the waking up in the middle of the night 2-3 times a night that gets me down.

Many cultures, traditional and otherwise don't have the luxury (or waste?) of different rooms for different members of the family. Life happened in one room... and the babies slept with their mothers from the time they were born to... the time they left to be married and start their own little clan. Hannah seems more settled when allowed the few times to sleep with us. Is it so bad then, to leave it like that?
