Could anyone shed any light on bedtime being so difficult?
my baby is 7m old, and has 3 naps a day most of the time. Usually, I can put him in his cot and leave the room and he’ll just get himself to sleep. Sometimes he’ll moan a little, but only for about 5 mins and then gets to sleep.
Bedtime on the other hand is completely different, every night except for a lucky night every now and again, he will just cry and cry until he’s in my bed and I feed him to sleep, (breastfed).
we have coslept since he was about 4 weeks old, so he does sleep in my bed of a night. However, I have tried starting the night in his cot to see how long of a stretch he’ll go, but this has only worked a couple times. I usually end up just having to bring him into my bed, feed him to sleep.
wake windows between naps are about 2.5hrs. Before bed I’ve tried 2.5hrs & 3hrs but nothing seems to work, he just seem to decide on the day what he wants to do😂
as well as this, he’s also started waking multiple times in the night, and again the only thing that’ll get him back to sleep is to feed him. It can be 5/6 times a night lately, just not sure where I’m going wrong!
