Can anyone give me any advice about stopping co-sleeping and getting my ds to sleep all night in his cot? He's just 6 months old.

I started co-sleeping about a month ago as we went on holiday and he was very unsettled - it quickly became a habit. He goes to sleep in his cot but wakes every four hours for a feed. He'll go back into his cot after the 10/11pm feed but after the 2/3am feed, as soon as his sleepy head hits the cot mattress he's wide awake and yelling. I was getting so tired so gave in and brought him in with us. He sleeps like a baby when in our bed!

Many thanks.

the cot thing is a good idea, thanks. I'm happy with him being in out bed really - I actually like waking up to the little gummy smile and having my face patted by a dribble-covered hand, but I think dh is getting a bit fed up!

Message
Emphasis: To bold a word, surround it with asterisks, so *hello* will display hello. For underline use _ , so _hello_ gives hello. For italics use ^, so ^hello^ gives hello. To strike out a word, surround it with two hyphens either side, so --dog-- gives dog

Links and smileys: To insert a smiley face,  , type [smile] or :)
For a big grin,  , type [grin] or :o
For a wink,  , type [wink]
For a shocked face,  , type [shock]
For an angry face,  , type [angry]
For an embarrassed face,  , type [blush]
For a sad face,  , type [sad] or :(
For an envious face,  , type [envy]
For a sceptical face,  , type [hmm]

Links The simplest way to insert a link is to enter the link itself, surrounded by [[ and ]]. So if you type [[www.mumsnet.com]], the link will display as http://www.mumsnet.com. If you want your link to display text other than the web address itself, leave a space after the address then add the text before the ]]. So "Look at [[www.mumsnet.com this page]]", would display "Look at this page".
