    No real advise as I suffer this too.
    My DS is unreal at tossing and turning, but has done it since birth. He's a little younger than your DS, but I just wanted to let you know that you aren't alone.
    I have found it worse when he learns something major - like this week he started walking.

    Thanks for replying Kim. I'm sorry to hear your little boy does it too. Well, maybe it is just a phase. DS has really amped up the walking lately, so perhaps that has something to do with it. I really need to get a good night's sleep soon!

    Oh my goodness yes! It's ok when he's happy to sleep alone - he can toss and turn and roll around all he wants then - but when he needs mummy to stay with him it's awful!
    It might be restlessness due to developmental stuff...
    My DS has always been like this, which is why we only co-sleep when when really have to. He'll take up a whole queen size bed

    That sounds terrible Marcellus! Maybe my DS will be like this for ever now? I am hoping that it's a developmental phase. Otherwise he's going to have to move to the cot, or we'll have to get a king sized bed! I can't imagine he gets a very good sleep tossing and turning like that. I know I don't.
