Problems with 15 month old in cot

I love my baby but she’s honestly annoying the shit out of me with her sleep now. Every night feels like a battle. We co slept for the first year of her life as I only had the one bedroom and I’m a single mum but have recently moved into a 2 bed and have been trying to get her into her own room. The first time I tried her in her cot it we great she slept until 5am and I thought we were getting somewhere. Since then she has gradually got worse and worse with her wake ups and she now will sleep 45 minutes and then wake up. I have even spent ages getting her back to sleep tonight for her to last all of 10 minutes before waking up again 😡. I have tried reducing her nap times to just one nap a day but it’s still not helping? She’s extremely clingy anyway and cries a lot even when I leave the room. It really is starting to get to me now I just want a few fucking hours to chill out by myself and I can’t even get that. Please give me your tips but she is not the type to just fall asleep if I leave her as I’m currently doing that and she is just shouting and crying.

Also I wouldn’t mind if she just slept in my bed while Co sleeping but she moans all night rolls into me kicks me so I’m just done with that now tbh. She is a worse sleeper than when she was 6 months old and it’s just ridiculous now

I haven’t told anyone we are trying for another baby. I think I’m seeing a faint line on one of these test. What does everyone else think

Not enjoying parenthood

Anyone else not enjoying parenthood as much as they thought they would? My little girl is 13 weeks old and screams inconsolably every evening. It's so stressful and really taking its toll on me and my partner as it's been like this for weeks now. I just feel a bit trapped and I'm not enjoying being a Mum as much as I thought I would. It goes without saying that I love my little girl so much, I'm just finding this phase so difficult

How long before I can stand without pain?

10 days post-partum, still unable to stand for more than a few minutes without pain that radiates through my pelvis and demands I sit back down for it to stop.
Sitting is uncomfortable, I had a 2nd degree tear and stitches for a vaginal wall repair but the pain when standing is extreme, walking is fine it only is an issue if stood still.

It's really caught me off guard I thought recovery would be easier than this I can't even stand and wash some dishes without feeling close to tears and needing to stop and sit

Are you letting your LO sleep through the night yet?

We’ve been feeding at 11, 3 and 7 currently. We set an alarm for the 3am and feed him. I set an alarm for 7 and just wait until he wakes up which is anywhere between 6:30 and 8:30. At what point were they missing the middle feed?
