Help! Can’t settle baby in cot!?
My 17week baby used to be a great sleeper and would be fine to transfer into her cot once she was in a deep sleep. But for the past 3-4 weeks now she wakes immediately and cries until she’s picked up and rocked or fed. We’ve tried all the tricks for transfer of warm mattress, waiting different lengths of time, feet first, side first etc! If we’re lucky she’ll last 30 minutes but mostly she wakes almost immediately! It’s obviously part of the sleep regression but I can’t work out what we could do to get her back in her own bed. The only way any of us get any sleep is cosleeping.
I’m at a loss for whether we just need to wait a few more weeks or if there’s something else that we can try? Everything out there says settle her in her cot but she just cries?
In case it’s relevant all her naps are contact and she’s got silent reflux that we’re managing with gaviscon

I’m in the same boat! Hoping someone has some ideas for us
Also in the same boat but prioritising sleep now.....Will deal with the cot when she can sleep 😴
It’s the 4 month sleep regression unfortunately. My little boy was the same for 2/3 weeks but seems like he’s settling back to normal now x
