My 10.5 month old has lately started waking up in the middle of the night (like, 2-3 am) and will stay up for at least 2 hours. She isn't hungry, and if I even try to give her a bottle she freaks, and doesn't need to be changed. Usually I have to walk around our house for what feels like forever with her on my chest, head resting on my shoulder, to get her to sleep, but even this doesn't work at these times. I literally have to sit up with her while she roams around the basement (she's been walking for a month now) until she becomes so tired she gets clumsy and then it's more walking to get her to sleep, and then hopefully I can get her in her crib without her waking up.

And to make matters worse, she got over a 2 week cold and now has a cough that is only aggravated when I lay her down in her crib so it wakes her up and we have to start the process all over again.

I don't know what to do. I get all snappy at my husband, because she absolutely refuses him at night, so I can't even have him watch her because she'll lose it - and I'm EXHAUSTED. It'd be tolerable if I didn't also have an almost 3 year old who is so high energy ALL DAY (no naps for her!).

I've never been able to put her down drowsy in her crib and have her fall asleep, it just doesn't work, and I'm sure it's 100% because I have fed her to sleep her whole life.

Help me.
