I have a 3 month old and sleep is a major issue. He's currently next to me screaming as he is so overtired.
For a couple of nights he was doing well but it's all gone to pot.
He puts himself to sleep for naps in his swing in the day but only catnaps and I think this is where the problem lies. Then at night time he will fall asleep with his bottle and I will put him in his rock n play. He will wake up within 20 minutes usually and then will take me an hour or 2 picking him up until he's asleep and putting him back down for him to wake again within 20 minutes, then the process starts again. Eventually he will usually go down for a few hours, then up between 12-2 for a bottle then he stays in bed with me until morning, he will wake anywhere between 5-7am to start his day. He has started to get very fidgety in bed with me so I am not getting any sleep.
I would really like to crack bedtime as I am a single mother to two older children and need to get them sorted and chores done while baby has gone to bed in the evening.
I do not wish to try cc but am willing to try anything else if anyone has any advice...
