Willow - im not sure as to what you could do to settle bubs during the night. Perhaps just stick with what you are doing now, and as he gets older, he will probably sort himself out at night. I personally wouldnt start rocking now, just because you havent had to do it before and you probably dont want to have to do this every night, especially as he gets bigger, it can be very hard on your back. Perhaps patting might do the trick? Glad to hear last night was a better night for you. Ours was better too, just the one wake up for a feed at 2 and another one early morning (6am) just to re-wrap and dummy. He was asleep, just getting restelss and a calling out in his sleep. Here's hoping for another good night for both of us .
Also, im starting to transition lochie out of the wrap too, just the one arm at the moment, them the other as he gets used to falling asleep with is arms around his face. Then we will go onto the sleeping bag. I have a summer and winter one, so not sure which one to with first. Its still fairly warm in our house at the moment, so am thinking the winter one might be too warm.

Saffi - hope m went well in her own room last night. And good luck on the move to the cot. Lochie was much better at the transition than I expected. Although, since moving his sleeping during the night has not been near as consistent and good as it used to be. But im not sure this has anything to do with the cot because his day sleeps are still great.

tippytoes - thanks hun Ill be using a sleeping bag. I think they are a good idea. I think it would be good for our wee Eli too, since he loves to explore the parameters of his cot at night cuuuutttteeee!!!!
