My LO is currently 2 months old and recently, she refuses to be put down to her cot to sleep! Co-sleeping doesn't work as well and she only wants to be carried all the time. The only time she allows us to put her down is when we change her. Very tired of holding her all the time and is affecting my sleep. In the past, we will put her down when she is in deep sleep and it has worked well for the past 7 weeks. Any suggestions to revert back to putting her back into her cot when she is in deep sleep, or even better to put her down immediately when she is asleep?

At 2 months old, babies only way of communicating is via their cries. I would recommend for you to be with her as much as she need. Are you currently bf? My baby is 3 months old and iam facing the same issues as you. In fact you are not alone, there are many mums who go through similar experiences. In the mean time its best to hang on. I know it must be really tough and tiring too, however it is part and parcel of being a new mum! Hang on mummy, you are not alone!
