Our 4 month old finally seems to be over pretty horrendous colic - touch wood. She has been in a pretty good sleeping pattern for a while - feed at 7.30, sleep/colicky fit till 10.30 feed and another feed during the night, although she has slept through till 7 on several nights recently.
The only problem is that she has been going to sleep on one of our shoulders and we have been waiting 20 mins and then carefully lowering her into her cot. If she wakes up she generally crys out and pick her up again and repeat...
During the day she sleeps in a sling, car seat or rocker chair.
We are building up to trying to trying to teach her to doze off on her own. I imagine this will involve a lot of heartache and screaming. Any tips on how to go about it?
