11 1/2 month old become a sleep pain

Hi, DD2 is 11 1/2 months and for the past 6 weeks her sleep has been getting worse. She used to go into her cot 2 1/2 hours after she woke and talked for a bit then went to sleep. Now she just screams, so I have tried leaving her up for longer to make sure she is tired but she still crys, to varying degrees. She started daycare two months ago so I'm sure it has something to do with this, they have been only getting her to have one sleep so I thought I would do the same. I just cant handle hearing her cry, I'm a believer in control crying but I dont think its working if she crys every day! Plus she is now waking at night and will only go back to sleep after a bottle. She has become a crap eater during the day now too so I think its a bad cycle. But she has gone from being a happy child to miserable and so I am now. I'm finding it hard to enjoy her at the moment, I was trying to have no.3 but have gone back on the pill because I cant handle the thought of going through this again. Any advice, please. I always try to settle her during the night with panadol and water, she happily go's back to bed but then 15 mins later will start to cry again, then cry for the next 40 mins before I give up and feed her. Last night I ddint even offer water or panadol i just lay her back down and she was happy for that for about 20mins before they crying started, then again DH gave in and fed her. It used to be once a week, then twice now its most nights. Im just waiting for it to be more than once a night, which Im sure will happen, its a bad habit and Im not happy doing it.

Hi mum of Chloe,

How long is her one day sleep at childcare?

Could she be really tired from day care and lacking sleep so that is causing her to wake more at night?

I hope she will go back to her good self!
