I think that you should go with what works for you.Thats one thing I've learnt having a baby....every bub is different and if something helps Gemma sleep longer or work better than I'm gonna do it!

We also put Gemma to sleep during the day belly down as we found she sleeps way better that way.I think its the whols startle reflex thing because she hated sleeping on her back, but we've started tog et her used to it during the night.Gemma is also going through the phase of screaming when I leave the room.She has really clingy days and I just let her sleep on me.Its easier for her and me and she wakes up heaps happier.And I LOVE the contact!You've got to admit its lovely!
