ok..DS has slept a total of2 hours since 2 am

[turtle23]

He's 8 weeks and this is getting ridiculous. He's overtired and so am I. Will not sleep. Just lies in cot either screaming or playing. Have tried everything and he's now just a mess and isn't happy unless he's on my shoulder or my boob. Save me!

have you tried the combination of swaddling/dummy/white noise(loud)/darkness?

He has finally gone to sleep. He was ready for bed at 640. Argh. At least he's asleep now, I guess. Am going to try very hard to sleep, but not easy this early!
