My little boy slept through from about 3 months to about a year then started waking most nights. It would only take a few minutes to settle him so we didn't think anything of it. Recently though he will wake up screaming for his daddy. If i go in he pushes me away and last night hit me. When his dad goes in he still won't settle and continues screaming for some time. In the day he is a happy little soul and we try to keep him active. Last night however it took 4 hours to get him to sleep and he still woke for over an hour. I've tried first time tuck back in, say goodnight again, second time tuck in, then leave him thereafter but he continues to scream. Thankfully he is still in a cot so he can't escape but it's heartbreaking to hear and is now having the knock on effect of waking his 4 month old brother. Does anyone have any advice or tips i can try so we can try and get him to have a full night's sleep? Thanks
