Our first baby is now 4 weeks old, I just keep him with us downstairs on an evening. He feeds about 7, then again about 10, or 10.30. Over the last week he has had quite a bit if discomfort with his stomach.(I had very strong AB's for mastitis) so we have added a bath in before his 10pm feed to try to sooth him and he has infacol before each feed until this settles (he is ebf). Our HV and my mil both think I am wrong to keep him with us and that after his 7pm feed he should be up in his Moses basket in our room rather than with us and that this is why he is struggling to settle as he is listening to us talking or hearing the dogs move about or the tv rather than settling to sleep. I thought that there was no point trying to impose a strict routine on him so young and that if he is uncomfortable then the best place is surely with us to reassure him? Have I got this totally wrong and I am actually the cause of his upset?
