Bedtime

Following as my little boy is the same at 7 weeks he won't go longer than 20mins anywhere but on me I'm exhausted 😴

@Kim don't get me wrong I love the hugs and bonding but I miss my bed

@Hanna I know I just constantly worry ill fall asleep with him in my arms so would love to be able to put him down even for just 2hrs at a time x

Have a look at happycosleeper on Instagram and see what you think about cosleeping and chest sleeping x

Don’t have any advice for the acid reflux but in terms of jolting awake in crib you could try hot water bottle in crib before putting him in to warm the covers, then remove just before putting him in and try keeping your hand under his head for a while to let him settle before removing as well so he has your touch. We used to do this with our daughter but she wasn’t suffering from acid reflux so may not work for you. You could also try cosleeping (check out lullaby trust on how to do this safely!). Hope you get some sleep soon.

Ive had the same, ive got a love to dream swaddle which has helped so much - i still get no more than 3 hour stints max! But he has a feed and goes back down now xxx

My baby's next to me has different hights on both sides to adjust, so I put the baby in it with a bit of slope, head a bit higher, to help acid doesn't come up. Mine doesn't have acid reflux but I could see sometimes he brings up a bit of milk even after burping.

@Bahar I'll Try that

My little one was a terrible sleeper until we introduced a swaddle, we use the tommee tippee ones. She’s 7 weeks today and now sleeps 10pm-4am. 100% recommend a swaddle.

@Courtney I got a tommee one how do I make his arms comfy he seems to hate it xx

I just go with however my little one lets me, sometimes she likes them upwards on top of her chest and sometimes she likes them straight down by her sides
