DH is doing sleep times over the weekend. He went down for his first nap ok, then fed when he woke . He's not so keen on the second nap though

Isaacs mum - he sounds exactly like my DS, who until recently would only sleep on my lap using me as a dummy. I didn't mind too much, but that's because he's my first, I imagine a toddler would change that!

Now that he is 5 months I have cracked down on things and only feeding three hourly (where possible) and putting him in the cot awake for sleeps. Most of the time he goes down without too much fuss, but today big tears so I fed him for about 2 mins, leaning over the cot so he was still lying in it and then once he had calmed right down swapped boob for dummy. Seems to have worked he is still asleep after an hour.

He will now do up to 90mins in the cot, where previously only 30min max, or about 5min if put down asleep. The only thing we tried that you havent mentioned is osteo, which seems to have really helped him.

Good luck!
