Holy crap Jen sounds like you had quite the experience, but so so so lad to hear Fara is doing well - hope you are as well?
Readytomum: Simon is actually much better at settling Isabelle when she is in a super scream mood as well. Again when she gets me it's that want to comfort suck lol! Re:sleeping we have a crib (US call is a cradle I think) in our bedroom which is where she sleeps at night. We have a Moses basket (bassinet?) downstairs for during the day but she seems to hate it so mainly naps in her bouncer. And we have a cot (crib?!) in the nursery for when she is bigger. We always planned to have her in our room, but not our bed, and she seems to be happy enough with that. We do bring her into bed in the morning for an hour or so to grab some extra sleep though!
Afm: we've had a better evening tonight. Managed to get Isabelle to nap until after 7 so she aren't overtired and screaming before we started bedtime. I also insisted we move bedtime back as it seemed to suit her better, and fingers crossed it seems to have worked. I know she's way too young to 'train' with routines and sleep, but she seems to be adapting quite well, and we are adapting to her needs at night time to make things a little easier.
(This is the point she will probably start screaming her head off )
