You're doing exactly what I'm doing! Awesome! my baby is a co-sleeping boob girl too and i've just started her on cloth nappies

Anyway, my daughter is 3 1/2 months and she went through this phase as well, around 2 months old. It was just a phase, and she got over it fairly easily. I completely agree that you shouldn't leave her to cry, if something feels horrible and wrong, chances are, it is. I don't really have any advice, my daughter and I just struggled through it and now she's a fantastic sleeper - she nods off whenever she feels like more and more often. In fact, I was shopping today and I was sitting on seat with her perched on my knee and she nodded off just sitting there! It was hillarious. I often put her down because I have to quickly do something and return to find her asleep all by her ickle bickle self! So all I can say is that I completely agree with everything you're doing, and hang in there because it will get better!

Can you put Savannah in her baby-sling and go about your day that way? Aurelia wouldn't have a bar of it but perhaps your bub is less fussy! If she allows, you could prop her up with pillows near you and do your daily stuff. At this age, Aurelia wouldn't let me do that lol, but again, maybe Savannah won't mind.

P.S
God, aren't MILs awful? Mine always tells me that I'm spoiling Aurelia because I always hold her if she cries etc. She tells me off for not giving her bottles of water as well (even though she's breastfed). Sigh!
