Yeah Kel, I have made it my personal mission to get Beau to settle in his cot now himself - I havent "rocked and patted" for about a week now and it feels really good...also he is just to bloody heavy too! I feed him - then wrap and burp, give him a quick pat and face stroke etc in his cot then walk out - if he wont take his dummy I just wait till he grizzles and leave him go back etc until he sleeps on his own - his day sleeps have been better too - sometimes 2hours!!
I am still wrapping him but just once in a giant muslin one and he can move about a bit more....
Ok I have him plonked in his cot waiting for DH to come home - better grab him out before he shouts the house down!
