Hi all, any help re this would be great...
My son is 3 weeks old. When he was born he spent a few days in neo natal and then some further time with me on the ward on a billibed. However, we came home after a week.
First week at home, fine. Son sleeps in Chicco lullago downstairs and no issues. Upstairs, we have a Chicco next to me, and again, first week at home fine.
However, in this last week, he will not sleep in his crib at night. He will grizzle and cry until he's picked up and held and within 5 mins, he's asleep. Temp in room OK; little man fed and changed, so no comfort issues.
Mentioned to hv who suggested infacol to assist with wind (in case that is upsetting him); and placing his crib at an angle in case he's got reflux.
Nothing seems to have worked!!
Any ideas?? Not sure why only seems to be a new thing this week and can't work out why! He still naps in his downstairs crib in day, so it just appears to be a night thing.

Thanking you from a very sleep deprived mummy! Xx
