My 6 month old ds has alway slept in his cocoon (which is a bag like thing with a firm base that came with my Phil&Teds pushchair) at night he sleeps in it in his moses basket, but he is way to big for it and his feet stick out the end. When he goes down for the night he often wakes up a few times before he will sleep through and when he wakes my dh or I have to rock him in the cocoon it is quickest way for him to fall back to sleep, infact it is the only way he falls asleep. But now he really is too big for it both my dh and I have sore backs from lugging him around in this thing and we are worried he is probably too heavy for it and the handles might break. So we are in need of an alternative. We have set up a travel cot with a new cot mattress in our room and tried to put him in there but he goes crazy as soon as we put him in it and always end up putting him back in the cocoon just for our sanity and so we can sleep. I think the thing he likes about the cocoon because it is enclosed. Anyway any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
