1 week in his room and still wakes up 10+times a night

[mylittlebubs]

I'm very tired waking up every 30-60min and i didn't get any sleep for 6 days already
the 3rd night he woke up 3 times so i thought it was getting better, but i don;t know why it got worse
he wants a lot of comfort from me in the last 2 nights and he wouldn't settle with anyone else
Any advice ?
I think it could be teething again, if not i hope he will sleep better soon
PS: we used to co-sleep

to be honest its probably the co sleeping to blame (maybe coupled with other things), i tried to move my baby at 5 months and it just didnt work for me. how do u get him to stay there, do u do CIO?

i have no experience but only thing i can think of trying is you maybe sleeping in the room, close to him for a night, then moving slowly further and further out of the room over a week or two... so he knows your there while he adjusts to the room?

or try sleeping with his blanket for a couple of nights so when he is in his room he can still smell you, and it may comfort him, he is prob used to your scent having co-slept with him?

hope you work it out! it will work just takes time im sure!

No I don't do CIO, I just can't
I use the no cry solution, pick him up when he cries or whines and when he settles down i put him back in the cot

Have you tried putting him down drowsy and staying there until her nods off? Hold his hand, or rub his tummy etc?

Personally if you want this to work, I would try and avoid picking him up, im not saying to let him CIO, definately if he starts to cry then try and comfort him, but try and do it without picking him up. He needs to learn how to settle in his new bed, and if you pick him up, he isnt learning that.

Does he have a comfort item? Do you have a good evening/bed routine? The evening routine should include supper, maybe a bath, a winding down time for him to settle and relax... and then your bed routine.

Its your call and you do what your comfortable with. But I wouldnt do it unless your commited.

Poor honey.

Maybe... its just a suggestion... I have NO CLUE, but it would be something I'd try... if he cant sleep without you, maybe for a couple of nights put a mattress or something in his room, so even though you're not in the same bed, you're still close by.

So he learns his bedroom is safe and secure.

i agree with ryder about not trying to pick him up..just try and rub his tummy/back

i also got told when soothing them dont talk to them just hold there hand or what ive put above

i let riley cry for 10 mins at a time went in sootheed him (Well oh did i couldnt i had to put me fingers in me eas lol) and now he goes bed 7 on the dot unless we have fed him late etc he goes down with no fuss he will tlak to iggle piggle for 5 mins then zonk till 5.30/6.30ish even though i didnt like to hear him cry its the best thing ive ever done
