Can’t be out down

Hi all, 11 week old baby boy could always be put down in his cot at night, but the last 3 nights he’s woken up every time I put him down, straight away. I’m so tired from holding him 😩 anyone else? I don’t mind him waking up to feed at all, but I really need him to be in his bed again when he’s asleep 😣

How long are you holding him for after you’ve fed him before putting him down

Love to dream swaddle up swaddle is a life saver. It’ll stop him waking up when you put him down due to the Moro reflex - completely changed the game for us!

My baby was like this too it’s so hard, I use a swaddle now, lavender spray, and a hot water bottle just before we put him in it and then take it out when they go on just so it’s warm like they would be sleeping on you. We also have a galaxy light in the room and he looks at it until he falls asleep🫶🏻

@Ali thanks, normally about 20 mins but until he doesn’t grip my finger anymore so I know he’s in a deep sleep. Like I say, I could put him down for the first 9 weeks, it’s just all changed overnight ☹️

Same with my boy I blamed the full moon 😆 but I think he’s going through a growth spurt
