Can I phase out cosleeping?

Hi all, my LO is 4 months old now. He is EBF. At night we cosleep but during the day he naps in his crib (and occasionally pram). His naps vary but he consistently does naps that are 1.5-2hrs in length, so I assume he has learned to link sleep cycles (I notice that he wakes up mid nap, opens his eyes, shuffles around, maybe calls out and then nods back off again).

However at night despite a consistent bedtime routine he will always wake 30-60 mins after I pop him in his crib, at which point I bring him into bed with me. If I try to settle him and put him back in the crib he won’t sleep. How can I encourage him to sleep in the crib at night? He wakes once or twice in the night for a feed which isn’t too bad but I admit I want DP back in the bed as he’s been in the spare room for ages!
