I'm really glad the chiro is helping, and I hope the transition gets smoother for you, I know how hard it can be (and we never co-slept LOL!) and I remember at its worst Paris would only sleep in her swing! But if she had warmth of human contact in a similar situation she'd crack it, all babies are sooooooooo different!
I'm gonna throw a spanner in the works here I really have to say I don't like places like tresillian. And this being a gentle forum, I'd say thats ok to say. Why? Because they often want to teach your baby how to sleep their way, instead of teaching the mother the sleeping/tired cues. Every baby is different and what works for one may not work for another. By that I mean if you had an easy sleeper the first time it may not be the same the second time (I wonder if that means I'll get a break this time ROFL). Babies are learning themselves how to sleep, how to interact and how to communicate. In the meantime its up to us as parents to help them in that, gently IMO, and by that I mean read the signs and go with them. I love ideas I love people sharing "what worked for them" but I hate it when someone says "DO THIS" to me no two people are ever going to be the same, and no two babies will sleep the same (even if they seem similar). And the amount of stories I've heard where people go to sleep clinics it all works fine there and then they come home and its not working at all. We should be helping each other look for cues, and telling mothers what they are rather then lets try controlled crying and see if that works *shudder*.
I know not everyone would agree with this, but this is why I am posting it here in the Gentle Forums.
