I'm sorry if this is done and a bit long winded, please try and stay with me! I tried searching but there were too many different ages etc!
We're trying to put DS down "drowsy but awake" like I've read, but he starts kicking his legs out and rubbing his face which just makes him cry he's swaddled in a sleeping bag otherwise it would be fingers in his eyes and scrams all over his face sigh but he still manages to rub too hard.
I've tried leaving him to this but he just starts crying and screaming hysterically. We tried to leave him cry once but it just got worse, and I'm not comfortable letting him cry it out. He is my pfb too !
Sorry it's such a long post! But does anyone have any advice? I'm up 3 or 4 times in the early hours cuddling him back to sleep. He won't lay down until he's fast asleep or he'll start kicking and crying I'm getting really frustrated and I don't know what to do.
