hi there..
my 7 week old is actually a sleepy boy but the problem is he will only sleep on me in the day and although i have managed to get him to sleep next to me at night by swaddling and keeping my hand on his tummy he wakes every 1-2 hours and is hard to settle..he will rarely be breastfed to sleep and often refuses feeds if i offer them too much and can go for 4 hours between feeds so don't think is hunger waking him.he is a big boy 10lbs at birth and gaining weight well so he must be geting enough..normally at night i have to cuddle/rock him then try and put him back down..he is windy but i think this is improving slightly..sometimes at night i notice he needs to fart after waking!!in the day he sleeps 2-3 hours at a time on me or my partner when he comes home..he then feeds is awake for an hour or 2 then needs to sleep again..if i try and put him in his carry cot he wakes almost straight away but still needs to sleep..so i just end up letting him sleep on me as otherwise he is overtired and grumpy any way..i accept that babies of this age need physical contact but as i am on my own with him most of the day and eve this can be wearing..i also have a 4 yr old that i have to bathe make dinner for and put to bed usually with 1 hand!!i have a sling which i use when i take my son to school but he only seems to manage about 20 mins in it before i have to get him out...it is the same when i take him out in his pram... sorry this is a bit of a ramble..any advice please???
