My 8 mo DS has always been quite a good sleeper, at least up until the last few weeks when he was teething, so was waking up more frequently throughout the night. This past weekend though he was unwell, with a high temp. and generally feeling pretty miserable, and the only way he would sleep was cuddled on my or DH's chest. He is much better today, went to sleep as normal in his cot, but woke up half an hour later, and the absolutely only way he will get back to sleep is on either of us (DH's shift at the mo). If we try to put him down he absolutely screams, and makes himself sick. The poor little guy is completely exhausted, but still won't sleep in his cot. Last night we brought him into bed with us again, but he would still only sleep on us, not even beside us in the bed. Has this happened to anyone? I'm hoping it was just because he was ill, but need some reassurance that it won't last! Sorry it's so long.
