A used to self settle wonderfully, we'd lay her down after a story and she'd suck her thumb to sleep. She then learnt to pull up to standing in her cot and since then it's been a slow descent from that, to rubbing her back, to a quick cuddle, to a longer cuddle, to rocking until drowsy and now we have to rock her to sleep. We seem to have ended up here without really realising it.
We're not really sure what to do. We don't want it to stay like this, but she starts nursery in 10 days so we know that anything we try may well just go out of the window anyway.
This is also the case for naps, but not after feeds in the night as she's drowsy enough to go to sleep.
Any hints/tips/advice? TIA
