How to stop baby trying to sleep on my head / stomach / back

DS keeps climbing on me to sleep we co-sleep but because he’s big enough to roll and climb on me he just wants to lay on me and then gets frustrated that boney areas like my shoulder blade, cheek bone or hip aren’t comfortable

Maybe he’s ready to sleep in his own bed/cot. Then you’ll both get some sleep.

@Flowersintheattic57 im actually trying that I’m easing him in to it putting his mattress on the floor outside his cot and trying to lay with him but he’s still trying to sleep on me

@Msgrieves thank you for your very helpful answer obviously I have no issue physically stopping him. Thanks for pointing out the obvious. However I’m looking for helpful answers as I’m not looking for advise on how to restrain a baby or to upset him
