Baby sleep how do u get ur babies to sleep

[donnarobinson]

Cruz is 12 weeks old 13 on Tuesday
Ever since he's been born he's been a good sleeper for bed since we've started puttin him up to bed with monitors he's always had his bottle been put straight down after winding and I've gone downstairs he's sometimes stired and had a kick about but always gone to sleep slept really well waking once sometimes twice but always had bottle and Right back down just recently he's started to cry when I put him down and the past two nights have been hard he's cried and cried I've had to pick him and cuddle him then he would wake as soon as I put him down he has got bronchiolitis and ino he's still a tiny baby and they like cuddles but he's always been fine for bed and it's hard work cuz I've got two other boys 4&2 we've been putting him to bed for 6pm then 2 year old 6.30pm 4 year old goes at 7.30 X so it's hard for me to have to sit in the bedroom with cruz till he's asleep my oh is here to so he has the other two boys but I just don't no what's wrong
Anyone else is the same boat X

Both my kids have been great sleepers, unless they are I'll. As soon as my kids are poorly they need me constantly. When they are feeling better they go straight back to their usual independent little people. Your lo is still tiny and maybe just needs mumma to make him feel better. I know its hard as ypu have other children but its a scary world for them when they aren't feeling great. Just continue with your rotuime of feeding and putting down. If he cries then give him the cuddles he needs to settle again. It will get better xxx

Is he poorly with the bronchiolitis at the moment? That will probably be making him clingy. Hopefully it's a phase and he'll go back to normal once he's better. My dd is like him but all the time she won't settle unless being cuddled. With my other children she just needs to fit in with them tbh, they need their dinner, bath, teeth brushed, dressing etc. Once they're in bed at 7-7.30 then I concentrate on her. Right now she doesn't go to bed till we do and I've struggled to get her into a routine but she's happy enough

My husband and I used to be able to put our baby down after he dozed off on the bottle. We're in the same boat. It stopped working. He cries when we put him down. It might have been a tummy bug which is the problem (his stools are fine now) or wonder week 19. Right now we are getting through it with rocking until he is in a deep enough sleep. It takes 10 minutes or more most of the time. I even have to rock him after a night feed. Naps are happening on my lap too as it is not worth it putting him in his crib and having him wake up immediately. I hope this passes soon for the both of us.
