Sleep habits: You may need to retrain her sleep habits. Get her calmed down and ready for bed, then put her in bed and leave the room. If she cries, go back in and calm her again. But don't turn on the lights, get her up and hold her. You may need to go back in 5 min, 10 min, etc until she falls asleep. If she wakes in the night, do the same thing. It will take a few days for her to learn.
