@Gigitree I've started co-sleeping. She would not settle in her crib for more than 15 mins, 30 max, and I was struggling to stay awake during the feeds and settling, and the same thing was happening during the day too, where I would struggle to stay awake while feeding her or holding her sometimes. I decided a bit of cosleeping was the safer option than me falling asleep holding her. She lies next to me, between me and her crib and will sleep for around 2 hours at a time doing so during the night, so I actually get some sleep and can look after her better. She is in a romper at night as our room is so warm and she has no covers but obviously gets some of my heat from being next to me. She's also on her back, so risk of SIDs is reduced. I can hear her breathing better with her being this close. I did something similar with my toddler, for the first few weeks, and then we would settle in his crib fine at night, so we'll see how we go.
@APD1981 Charlotte has been really fussy the last few days and barely even settles in the carry cot during the day, which she was doing no problem. I had a text yesterday from the infant feeding team saying there was a growth spurt around 2-3 weeks which could make babies feed more, cluster more and being unsettled, so I'm guessing that's why.
@Blizy I hope you're little one is doing better
Charlotte has a rash. It looks like a heat rash but has spread since it started. I sent photos to the doctor and we have an appointment in a few hours so she can see it in person. She said it did look like a heat reaction but it also looked quite severe. We put her in a romper yesterday, rather than a sleep suit, and I think we'll do the same or a baby grow while it's this hot the next few days.
