Baby won't nap!

[angelrainbow]

My 9 month old is having a party in her cot...she just won't go down for her afternoon nap. Argh!

She didn't even go to sleep last night until 9.30pm and was up at 6am.

I know she is teething, but this is ridiculous - I have a toddler to run after as well and I need a bit of peace and quiet.

Any tips from parents out there as to how to get an overtired baby to sleep?????

Ahhhh..the soothing new age plinkety plonkety music seems to have done the trick, all is quiet over the baby monitor now. Phew!

Glad she has settled angelrainbow.

There's nothing worse than babies who won't sleep!

My 'baby' is grown up now (20), but I was very lucky, she slept through the night from 3 months.

my eldest teethed without any fuss or bother at all, but little bab does suffer, bless her. Her gums are so swollen and red.
She has been a light sleeper from birth..ahh that's her over the monitor now..back later!

i used to put a radio on in my sons bedroom on really low, with a lamp and that seemed to work

I used to put the hoover on for my eldest or drive around the block ( Couldn't afford to drive down the road now[:D])

My youngest didn't sleep through th night til she was 3 and now she exists on 4 hours a night, bit like me! she has a dughter herself who is just the same so there is a kind of circle going on [:)]

I slept like a baby last night.



I woke up at 3am and i had wet myself.
