Im just looking for some advice I have a 3 week old who has bad reflux, doctor has given him gaviscon but Im not 100% sure its helping. We have a snuzpod and ever since he has been born he wont sleep in it, we have bought a sleepyhead and he will sleep in that in the livingroom during the day but at night when we move him to our bedroom he will sleep for about 30 minutes then he stirs and starts screaming and nothing seems to settle him. He constantly wriggles about and I know its his reflux bothering him, if anyone has any advice on settling reflux babies please let me know
We have taken to sitting in the livingroom with him, my husband does a few hours to let me sleep then i take over about 4am to let him sleep. He will sleep for a cpl of hours at a time but only in his pram in the livingroom, we keep trying to persevere with our bedroom and we have tried putting him down during the day in the room with one of us watching him but again he wont sleep.
I know hes only a few weeks old so he is still trying to get to grips with things but im panicking slightly as my husband is due back at work in a cpl of weeks and I feel im going to have to sit in the livingroom with him all night so as not to disturb my husband.
I just feel like nothing we try works and i feel so helpless as he is so uncomfortable.
