I just read your post from last night. I am so so sorry. This was our life for the first part of DD's life (and apparently it's getting back that way, but not even close to what you describe). Everything changed when 1) I stopped eating dairy (she actually never had reflux- this was her painful issue) and 2) we gave up and let her sleep on her stomach with an angelcare monitor. I know you've tried everything, but she literally will. not. sleep. on her back. Ever. We were getting a max of 15 minutes a night and we were ready to give her to someone, anyone, who would take her!Although she's hit the wakeful stage and is often up 1-2 times per night (I think last night was a fluke because she rolled over so many damn times and ended up like a pathetic turtle on her back) she was STTN for up to 11 hours at a time, which would have been unheard of on her back.?

Best of luck....I would ask your MIL to take your LO for a night so that you can recharge. He might be sad, but you won't be there to hear it/he'll know that you're not there to "rescue" him and it might be good for both of you. I sent DD to my mother's a week ago because we were dying and sure enough, she STTN for my mother. ?
