Until now my DS has been a pretty good sleeper - much better than my DD, but this week that has all stopped and he won't sleep in his cot for more than an hour at a time and mostly its been about 30 minutes if he doesn't wake up as soon as we put him in.
He's not hungry as I don't always need to feed him and my DP can settle him - he just wants to sleep on one of us. He is teething and he has a cold but even so I would have thought I could expect him to sleep for a couple of hours once he is down. I'm using calpol & neurofen (within the guidelines) and also ambesol.
I'm getting desperate as I'm trying to look after 2 children of 2 and 5 mths on about 3 hours sleep a night!
Any help/advice or sympathy greatly appreciated!
