my baby girl iz 1 yr old..her weight,height eating scheduleeverything seems perfect n her ped iz happy....the only n worst n weird problem iz sleeping..
at night she sleeps frm 12.00 till 7 am without wakig inbetween..but the prob iz she either needs me or her father near her while sleeping..she touches us n confirm that we r near her every 10 min.after she sleeps if we put her in cot she wakeup in 5 minutes..in these 1 yr she never slept alone even for 5 min.i am terribly upset..so the problems i am facing bcuz of thiz are

1) me n my hubby hardly have any intercourse once in 2 months or so..bcuz she will always b near us n wunt sleep alone
2)i can do any work while she sleeps but she wunt sleep during day without me so i cant do any work n my hubby iz relaly bored of restaurant food
3)i like to continue my studies but bcuz of her behavoir i am pretty sure that baby sitter will slap her or ask me to take her away
4)i cant even go to toilet or restroom even for 5 min..she starts screaming..my freinds said dunt pick her up ..let her get habitated by that..i tried but she will end up in breathless crying n voilet body n litres of tears for almost 30 min

Chill dear :) .... ok lots of mother' s face this problem. Your baby is used to your warmth and body smell and cannot sleep unless she is comforted by the same. To get a break, you can wrap your pillow in one of your night gowns and keep it next to her. I keep my daughter in the kitchen with me when i' m cooking, try the same. If you tire her out in the day by making her run around. Infact since she is 1 yr old, one good way to keep her busy is to keep asking her to get things for you. Like baby .. please bring your toy or something please bring the remote, please give the remote to daddy ... just keep her busy. Then once she' s tired, sit her down feed her .. dont make it a habit to run after her and feed her, make her sit in one place. Then put her to sleep and once you hear her breathing deep and she' s knocked out, im sure you and your husband can get some time for each other. Another way to tire her is to put her in a bath tub and let her splash in the water.
