It’s been 9 weeks since our second bundle of joy joined our family and 9 weeks with little sleep for me. He arrived via c section, for first couple of weeks he had an awful lot of mucus going on, terrifying as he could hardly breath. Then he had a chest infection and on antibiotics being only 5 weeks old. So a lot has been going on in his little life from the start. And so he would always be on me, day and night, 9 weeks on.. he will not stay on his back in his sleepyhead, in his bouncy chair, in his Moses basket. He sleeps on me. We tried cranial osteopathy as it worked with our fist son but this time round it had no effect. We suspect there’s a reflux too, I am combination feeding, mostly breast but at night he will get bottle of formula from daddy. So I can have 20 min of sleep.. I’ve been sleeping in sitting position with him on my chest. I know it’s not safe but I am a very light sleeper so i feel like I have some control but of course I am also extremely worried. I just bought another swaddle and I was in heaven when he lasted in it 30 min on his back in his sleepyhead. Tried that in the evening in his Moses basket and he lasted 5 min. He’s fast asleep on me as we speak! What do I do? Will he ever be able to sleep on his own in his basket and then cot? He will sleep on his side but only for a little, tried putting him on his tummy during the day and again it works for max 15 min and then he does something funny with his head, and ends up face down. I am exhausted, my husband is snoring next to me and I am looking for help here! Do we need to start sleep training? We have not had any sleep problems with our first son, he truly was an angel baby, sleeping for hours, anywhere and everywhere. So we don’t know what’s going on this time round. My pregnancy was very challenging too and I feel like I have not slept since January!! Any thoughts ladies? I am in a need of a sleep! 😉 xx
