I am afraid my daughter turned from angel baby sleeping 8 hours per night to thrice nightly waking and co-sleeper at the point when we moved her from basket to cot at 4.5 months.

Things I wish we'd tried before she got in out bed and decided she liked it:
swaddling
warmer clothing
cot bumpers - if these are considered safe at such a young age, never sure

I think she felt exposed and chilly

Anyway she is still in with us at 15 months - I am sure youyr ds will not be so bloody minded!

He'll settle down soon enough I'm sure...join the club re sleep deprivation! I've had about two weeks worth of sleeping through the nights in 16 months! on my own too, so no let up. YAWN......
