Hello,
I am at my wits end! My partner works away so I am parenting my 4 month old baby alone most of the time. He has always been a difficult sleeper but more so recently! He refuses to nap at home and will wake up every 10 mins often resulting in naps lasting 20 mins maximum. If we are out in the pram or at my parents house he will sleep for hours. My parents have a travel cot for when he comes to visit during the day and despite all the noise (talking, dog barking etc) he will sleep soundly for hours! At home... different ball game! I keep the bedroom dark, white noise, swaddle etc but he wakes up constantly. Due to the exhaustion of this, he often ends up in bed with me (following co sleeping safely, please no hate!). But I really want to stop this but every time I try he is up all the time and I end up giving in early hours of the morning. When he sleeps with me, he only wakes once for a bottle. Any similar babies? Or any advice? I have tried and keep the house somewhat noisy but no luck so far. I can't tell if he just hates his bassinet or if there is something I am doing wrong! I would blame this on a sleep regression but he has been like this since birth!
Thank you for reading! Any advice or tips are greatly appreciated!
