My son is 10 months old tomorrow 🙈 he keeps waking himself from his sleep as he tosses and turns a lot and keeps smashing his head off the sides of the cot 😫 or he gets frustrated as he ends up lying sideways and obviously can’t lay straight this way so gets very angry, anyone got any suggestions?😫

We’re in the exact same situation. Now that our little boy knows he can properly move about himself, wow he’s like a little acrobat in his cot 🫣😂. Same as you though, he keeps bumping his head or lying sideways and I’m terrified he’s going to straighten out his legs and really hurt his head 🤦🏻♀️

Do you use any cot bumpers by any chance?

My baby did this, I bought cot bumpers to soften the impact

Same situation lol

Same for us! I’ve resorted to putting our little boy in his travel cot for a couple of nights to see if it helps him sleep any better… of course, it hasn’t made any difference 😂 give me back my swaddled newborn who just stays exactly where I put him!

no he sleeps with his head at the edges so I’d be scared he suffocated x

my son hated being swaddled even as a newborn lol x
