Going out of my mindddd & I need help 😮

[noodlesareyummy]

Hello! My baby is 6 months old, he eats and drinks well but he won't sleep unless he's in the sling or being held. I went for only and he has had a 30 and a 20 minute nap today. Tonight I sat next to him and held his hand and he screamed for an hour and became so distressed thrashing around that I picked him up. He's going to wake up 10+ times in the night screaming. Mums, helllllppppp meeeeeeeeee pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease! (I have 2 other kids so ideally nothing involving potentially hours of night screaming.)

"cot only" not "for only"

Has he ever slept?

Have you moved him into his own room yet?

Is he acting over tired? How long are his awake periods?

Yep, he's slept, he went down to a midnight feed only and even all the way through a couple of times.

He's in his own room yes.

He doesn't act tired at all! The only way he even seems tired is the occasional eye rub.
