We used a sleep trainer called Hannah Love at the Yummy Baby Group (easy to find on a Google search). She was fantastic and we will be using her again for our second child due shortly. My son was 5 months old when we started and still waking approx 25 times a night (no joke). We will all loosing our sanity. Hannah doesn't visit in person but advises by phone / email for as long as it takes to solve the issue. She worked with us until our son was going to sleep on his own and staying asleep - we saw a massive improvement within a week or so and then the rest was fine tuning. I honestly can't recommend her enough. Oh, and no controlled crying - just gently teaching reliable sleep cues until he could sleep on his own. 18 months on and we still use the sleep cues and he is still a good sleeper (normally...).

I've just used night nannies and my 6 month old has gone from waking 5 or 6 times a night to doing 12 hours which has been totally life changing! We did try and do it ourselves but failed miserably - if you're not tough enough, I thoroughly recommend paying the money - which was a significant sum for us - as he and we are all 100% happier.

    • Apologies on the tardy reply, but thank you everyone for your responses and suggestions! Unfortunately I couldn't attend the recent EDF drinks because of work (I know right). But will absolutely keep eyes peeled for the next one and try and come down! 
    • Because of the weather which delayed completion with roofer only being able to work certain days, it was up from November - end of January. Went slightly higher than gutters (we also had guttering replaced).
    • It's tough being a courier and the pay which is largely based on the number they deliver is miserable. Hence the staff turnover is high. EFRI was previously branded as HERMES but they had to create a new brand name because of poor performance. We get regular courier deliveries and EVRI are by far the worst. They just drop the parcel at the front door - often without ringing the bell. But worst is when they deliver to the equivalent door number on LL instead of ours on EDG. Best are ParcelForce, DHL and DPD by a wide margin.
    • I know the couple you mean, and she has always been friendly and smiley when delivering to me, but obviously in a hurry, for all the reasons outlined in the thread. My gate is always open, however (unless someone coming to the house closes it when they leave). I can't see the point of gates that have to be opened and shut again every time someone comes to the house. It just seems a waste of time, and it's annoying if you are carrying stuff. And a closed gate  conveys a sort of "my house is my fortress" feel. To me, anyway.
