Only sleeping on my chest 😫

Alyssa

Hi everyone!

My LO is 8 weeks old and was sleeping perfectly fine in his bassinet up only waking for a feed and resettling okay until a week ago.

Now he may sleep in his bassinet for up to 2 hours when we initially put him down but will wake up after that and will sometimes feed but mostly just falls back asleep in mine or my husbands arms as soon as he’s asleep (even snoring) we put him back down and gently hold his tummy and rock him for a couple of minutes and as soon as we let go he squirms so we let him go for a couple of minutes but then he lays there eyes wide open and starts getting frustrated. So we pick him up and he falls straight back to sleep again! We end up just taking turns holding him on our chest and let him sleep until the morning..

He is currently in his second leap I’m not sure if this has anything to do with it?

Any help would be appreciated mummy and daddy need a good rest!

Thank you.
