7 month wakeful period???

in Babies: 6 - 9 Months
DD has been having a terrible time sleeping lately. I don't know if it's a growth spurt, her teething, a wakeful period or what. I am exhausted. I've started putting her to bed with me at around 3-5 am when she wakes up. I know this is a terrible habit but it's like I have to trick her into going to sleep by watching music, or a cartoon ( I know the AAP says no tv before 2 but they don't have a screaming baby at 3 am and have to get up for work at 7). Please give me any tips or advice you have. Thanks!!!

    If she doesn't take a paci, try loud white noise and the Adan and Anais Lovie your baby can cuddle. When my son wakes in the night and can't find his paci, he grabs the lovie, cuddles it, and even sucks on it (it's very thin and breathable) to soothe himself. it really helps!

    also it could be teething! We just hit that now, but we have always had a horrible sleeper! I have tried everything. I totally get that LO ends up in your bed. I never thought I would do it but you get desperate at night lol. Good luck.
