Sleeping in cot

Is there no way you can cosleep when away?

Unfortunately no, we’re dog sitting for my sister in law and her spare room is two single beds so it just wouldn’t work

We soothe ours while he is still laying in the cot, e.g we’ll gently rub or place a hand on forehead and chest, and thats normally enough to comfort him if he needs it. We still swaddle and use white noise, and keep the room dark x

I’ve tried this too but for some reason he doesn’t like it, the only time he stops is if I pick him up, a couple of times he’s used he’s dummy but when it comes down to falling asleep it’s just a mission to get him to sleep

Have you tried warming the crib slightly before putting him in? That was a game changer for our little one!

Has he got reflux or anything like that? My babies both did and HATED laying flat in a cot. I couldn’t get them in their next2me for love nor money. I co slept with them both for first 6/7 months and then moved to their own rooms and cots around then. Obvs they came back and fourth with teething/illness ect. I would say push the singles together if there’s room and cosleep but have travel cot as backup. He may well prefer the travel cot! Who knows! But be prepared that he won’t. So hard having clingy little koalas xxx

I make sure to wind him after a feed and make sure he’s burped sometimes he doesn’t do it straight away so have to do it a few times but once he’s finished I try to lay him down and just doesn’t want it, I can try to warm he’s bed to see if he likes that
