Help, please.
DS has coslept with me since birth. I came to the conclusion we're both now keeping each other awake. He seems to feed and suckle all night when I think it is just a case that I am there. Anyway, started moving him two nights ago. Fed, goes down and sleeps exactly two hours, a sleep cycle I know. Then after that it is a vicious fight of wills. Sometimes he goes back down for an hour if I am lucky. Most of the night he will go down for anything like 5-30min before screaming his head off. Problem is I cant comfort him easily as he's on the bottom level of the cot, he's a heavy boy and it is killing my back lifting him in and out.
Ive tried putting him down countless times semi awake but he literally goes mental, it's a no go. I'm sure it's because he's not used to the room iyswim.
This morning my back went out and he ended up back in my bed at 2am 😢
I'm going to try and put him down for a nap today but I also have a 3yo so this is all so much harder second time around!
Does anyone have any advice? I'm exhausted already.
