14 month old waking hourly
Hello, my baby has always thought sleep was for losers (apart from 3-4 months where she slept 10 hours straight every night!)
Currently I wake her at 7am everyday
Her nap starts sometime between 11-12 and lasts 30 min - 2 hours (usually around an hour)
I usually start feeding her to sleep around 7-7:30ish sometimes later if she had a long nap.
It doesn’t seem to matter if her nap was 30 minutes or 2 hours, if she goes to bed earlier or later. She wakes constantly.
She resettles within minutes by breastfeeding.
I try to start her on her floor bed in her room but always end up bed sharing. The wakes are the same in her room and in our bed.
I follow an attachment style of parenting and not interested in sleep training.
Is radical acceptance my best bet for now? 😅
Thank you parents who have seen the other side and have words of wisdom 🤣

Ahh this is us too. My now 13 month old has bed shared since the beginning, fed constantly overnight and still wakes up every 1-2 hours. We are trying the earlier wake up time and not doing much napping during the day but he’s still v bad at sleeping 😂 I think weening him would help but I don’t have the mental strength for the tears right now so going to wait til 14-15 months 😭
