Sleep issues

My little man is 15 weeks old. He use to sleep through the night in his crib, then a few weeks ago he decided he'd only sleep in our bed so we started safe co-sleeping which was absolutely fine. However, the last few nights he's decided next to me isn't enough and he’ll only sleep on me, I'm not comfy with this as of just doesn't feel safe. Any ideas why he’s doing this and how to get him back next to me or in his crib?

I have had the exact same issue for the last week!

Could just be hes going through a big developmental peak and seeking comfort from you, could also be the 4 month change in sleep which can be quite disruptive for them. Either way it should just be a blip and things will get better ❤

If the only way he will let you sleep is by sleeping on you, the safest way is to prop yourself up so their head is higher than their bottom whilst on you, and make sure blankets are low down/mattress either side of you is clear if he does roll off you xx

I never planned to cosleep either but here we are 😂😂 there’s a good group on here and another on Instagram for advice and guidance on cosleepinh which include chest sleeping safely xx

Baby moisturiser (UK)

What are we using for baby moisturisers please ladies?
I started with aveeno because he has sensitive skin and had a lot of rashes when he was born, just can’t afford to spend £9 a bottle when we use it every day!😮‍💨
We’ve tried Aldi moisturiser and Johnson’s moisturiser, they are ok, just wondering what you guys use and would recommend? 🫶🏻

Is there any correlation between sleeping through the night and types of feeding?

Did your baby age 0-6months sleep through the night, 6 hours or more, and how were they fed? It always see like formula fed babies sleep through the night sooner than breastfed babies.

Hey everyone im New here 👋🏼

This is probably normal, My baby is six weeks today - in the daytime after a feed, change and tummy time he will go to sleep with no fussing etc in his DockAtot ( supervised ) i have now been taking him into his next to me instead for a nap as newborns sleep all the time.

But in his next to me hes very fussy and moves about a lot .. this is also the same in the night time, any suggestions?

Thank you ❤️x
