My DS is now 14 weeks, and we are having absolutely no luck in extending his day sleeps past 1 x 40 min sleep cycle. We can get 2 of these a day generally, unless he is being held or worn.

Baby wearing for his sleeps isn't feasible as I find the extra weight too much for my dodgy ankle. And sitting holding him for hours on end obviously won't work either.

It is definitely a resettling issue as I Have tried going back to swaddling, sleeping bag, more blankets, feeding to sleep. Everything I can think of.

DS has no problem self settling for the original sleep and for bedtime, he must resettle himself overnight as he sleeps 7 pm til 7am.

Does anyone have any suggestions of getting him resettled enough to fall asleep for a second sleep cycle?
