Bed time

[katieush]

Hi everyone. My little boy who is 9 month old won't seem to settle when I put him into cot. If he's asleep as soon as I lay him down and starts crying also if I lie him in it he just screams. The only places he will seem to settle is in my arms or in his bouncer. Any tips on how I can get him to settle in his cot and stay there?

Thanks in advance

Have you tried settling him to sleep in your arms while he's wrapped in his favourite blanket, and putting him into bed gently in the same blanket?

Also, I know it's warmer weather now... But when my LO was small I found heating his cot up with a hot water bottle helped. Not sure that's safe in warm weather though, sorry.

Yes I've tried that he just keeps waking up then crying. He finally gives in at about 11.30
