I feel like I’m losing it

I absolutely love and adore my son so much. I want to see him happy and his amazing goofy self... but lately my relationship with him is nothing but failed discipline and just frustration.

He’s 1 years old and he will not sleep in his crib for anything. When he sleeps with us he rolls around all night and slaps us in the face. And the thing that is driving me absolutely insane is his hands! I can’t be affectionate with him because as soon as I’m close to him he grabs my face, pinches, scratches, bites, and I can’t deal with it.

It makes my blood boil because no matter how nice or even how stern I am with him nothing changes. He thinks it’s funny and will do it harder.

Please give me some advice on how to stop him from grabbing faces. I need some kind of method that will stick. Please
