Hello, i have a 2month old bb and i am finding it very difficult to get him to sleep for long period of times, especially during night time when i put him in his cot. This has been the case pretty much from birth. During the day is pretty much the same. I will put him in his cot and he will go to sleep but only for about 20-30 minutes if im lucky then wake up n cry. i will go back in there and try settle him again and the same thing happens. At night time he most of the time wont go to sleep until like 11pm and then i will put him in his cot but then he will wake up as soon as i put him in there most of the time. He prefers to sleep on the couch with me in my arms and will sleep for a period of qat least 3hrs at a time. Whilst i didnt want this to b an option for him as it will be harder to get him in the cot when you have little sleep and just want a bit of a rest you do what you have to. Ive tried so many different things that people have told me like putting one of my shirts in the cot for the smell, music in the background. Also he will not sleep in his cot without a u shape pillow to be snuggled in at all. Demanding child yes. I am trying to persevere and not give into him but when he does cry i will go to him and he will smile at me. What can i do then?? Any other ideas on what i can try. thanks
