When does the sleep get better

Sounds fairly normal tbh. Does he possibly have reflux? But to be honest at this age, I’d just stay in bed and prioritise sleep. You’ll get evenings back - but for now, just focus on sleep.

Honestly, every child is different and some take a while for sleep to improve, others get there quicker. Ours has only just started to improve at almost 3yo.

The failed transfers used to be a nightmare for us so I gave up on even trying and just co slept with him to eliminate that but you say you're already co sleeping?

If he's waking up as soon as you leave the bed he's needing your closeness and contact which is completely normal. You could either stay in the bed with him or if that's not practical you could baby wear in a sling so he can still sleep whilst on you whilst you go about other things.

Breastfed babies often don't need burped. It could be something else causing the fidgeting or it could just be active sleep which is also completely normal.

Everything is a phase and be aware - sleep will change aaaaalll the time in the first 1-2years!

It so child dependent! My first didn’t sleep through until 25 months, he woke 1-2 hourly or less until then.

We co-slept, while it often didn’t improve his sleep as such I felt less exhausted and less mentally drained from all the failed transfers.

Such young babies are very active sleepers unfortunately! My second we’ve co-slept from birth he’s now 16 weeks and while he still sleeps like crap he’s way less active in his sleep than he was when he was younger so I get more rest in between the wakes.

So hard but so so normal for baby to want to be close to you! It’s not forever I promise and one day from now wether that’s a week, a month, a year or a few you will sleep again ❤️

My best advice for now is go to sleep when they do and bank as much sleep as possible x
