YAY! DS had a 2 hour afternoon nap in the cot!!!! I heard him grizzle, then resettle himself - I didn't have to go in at all! I was downstairs, defrosting my fridge & praying that he would stay asleep & he did!! I was so excited I called DH to tell him!! It's the first decent sleep in the cot in over a week. I think it helped that I took down the mobile that was hanging over his ciot - I realised that he was staring at that rather than going to sleep.

Cally - Yeah, I think 15 mins is about my max too! (realistically, at the moment, once he's been unsettled for 5-10mins, he is unlikely to resettle unless I'm cuddling him)

Willow - Thanks for your encouragement . I do worry that he doesn't get enough sleep some days (which is why I end up holding him on the couch for two hours so at least he will sleep!)
