Hi
Help - my 6 week old baby is a terrible sleeper. He is wakeful most of the time and its a huge effort to get him off to sleep. Tried every trick in the book - swaddling, white noise, rocking etc to get him to sleep and one of these usually works.
We can get him off to sleep but he awakes after a max of 45 mins and its impossile to get him to go back to sleep and the whole process needs to be restarted.
For daytime naps thats fine but at nighttime its a nightmare. The only way I can get him to sleep for longer or at least enable me to get some sleep is to put him in bed with me.
He is b/f and I have even tried formula to see if its makes a difference in nighttime feed but it doesn't...
Any suggestions, similar experiences would be helpful.
Many thanks
