Thanks so much, i love reading all these replies! one thing i will change in our sleep routine from this is to stop lying him on his back next to me, i did have my arm under his head the first night i did this but found it more comfortable above his head.

Another thing i might try is lying him on top of our/my covers however i do like him very close to me.

i was considering one of the sleeping aids but it is clear that many do not bother with this.

DH the first night said to me he sleeps so much better in bed with us, lol (just to add he is only on my outside, side)

Tomorrow we get the bed to ourselves lol!!!

and Tanya great link, thank you xx
