How did you put your baby down to sleep at this age? Ds would only fall asleep in arms rocking and shushing, I’ve now curbed the rocking and this past week he’s actually managed to sleep in the Moses basket when I’ve put him down without holding him 20mins beforehand! Managed to sleep up to 45mins tops, then he needs to be picked up and sometimes needs to nap more so hold him.
Also, do I need to wake him up at the same time to get up in the morning every day? Most days, (still sporadic) his morning up to early noon runs like clockwork feed/play/nap time wise. Then early evening it’s unpredictable, he can nap 10-30 mins a couple so times. Some nights are particularly tough with witching hours. Bedtime at 8.30pm but he tends to either be awake or tired but fighting to go to sleep up til 10-11pm for the feed. Bit of a worry that he can be awake for 3 hours during this stint (though not 100% awake, odd catnap in between).
This week has been different though, he had his vaccinations a couple of days ago and since then his sleeping has been all over the place.
Just thinking he’s 2 months old, I know he’s still little but am now thinking do I need to start thinking about bringing more structure into his day for sleeps and nap time? Any advice??
