My daughter will not sleep

I’ve posted about this before.

But, I can’t seem to get anything right when it comes to this.

My daughter just turned 8 months, I co-sleep with her. Anyways, I cannot get her to sleep at a decent time. If it’s a good night, she’ll go to sleep at 11pm & wake up at 9:30 or 10 am. But on nights like tonight, she won’t go to sleep until probably around 1:30am & I try to make sure she’s awake by 10am.

She ends up taking 3 naps a day. Today I tried only letting her sleep for 45 minutes thinking it would make her tired enough to sleep all night when I put her down at 8:30pm. Well, it didn’t work.. I nurse her to sleep.

I am just done. I can’t put her in her pack n okay or crib with out her screaming bloody murder & I obviously can’t leave her in my bed alone while she’s awake because she will roll off the bed. I need help. I’m tired & im frustrated. I feel like I’m failing as a mother.. I know she needs more sleep, I know she’s tired, but can’t get her to sleep.

I make sure the room is dark as possible, I have a sound machine for her, she has a taggie blanket she rubs against her face to fall asleep. I make sure she’s got a fresh clean diaper & make sure her belly is full before bed & absolutely nothing is working anymore..
