Hey nox,
I know its been a few weeks since you posted this, but I just wanted to say that my DD (9wks) does EXACTLY the same - during the day I can only get her to sleep on her own for about 5 - 10 minutes, then she wakes up and cries. I can resettle her, and she'll go back for another 5 minutes. I can choose to do this all day, or otherwise just let her sleep on me, which she will do quite happily for two hours!! It got to the point where I just let her sleep on me, as its too stressful and tiring going to her constantly, and I don't want to leave her crying. Some days I was spending the entire day just trying to get her to have some "quality sleep"... I hope its a phase. Is your DS still doing it? Did the swing work? My DD was great at day sleeps up til about 6wks - she would do two hours or more at a time. So I have had a taste of the good life, and I want it back!!!

Nights are very similar to yours too - she will do her 6-7 hours unbroken sleep from about 7pm, then wake regularly after that (at which point she sleeps on my tummy again...)

Slings haven't worked cause she wriggles too much and gets distressed. She'll sleep in a pouch while I am on a walk, but I can't walk all day !!

Let me know how you are getting on... I'm thinking of you!
