Hi all, just looking for a bit of advice and/or reassurance.
My DD is coming upto 16 weeks old and still will not sleep flat on her back. When she was around 5 weeks old, we suspected she has reflux. After a chat with health visitor we switched her milk to Cow and Gate anti reflux milk, which works well for us. However, she still will not settle laying down. We tried her crib but I assumed that when she flung her arms out, seeing as it is narrower than a full size cot and now i'm not so sure. DD sleeps best in her car seat, in one of our arms or in bed next to me. At 16 weeks old me and my husband are still doing 'shifts' which isn't good for his early morning starts at work.
I desperately want to get to the stage of a bed time routine and putting her to sleep, which means we get our evenings and bed back!
Any advice or tips? Does this get better? Do they grow out of reflux eventually, as this is so exhausting!
Thanks.
