DESPERATE!!!!!

Sarah

So my 6 month old is not sleeping! He has no problem falling asleep when I put him down between 7-8:30 but he does NOT stay asleep! He sleeps for 30 minutes and then he’s up. He will wake up crying and wants to snuggle and sleep in my bed! As soon as he lays in bed with me he falls asleep. I know I started this bad habit but I’m desperate for sleep. I have to be at work at 6:30 every morning so I’m exhausted everyday now! My first baby was not like this and slept in his own crib since he was 3 months old and slept 9/10 hours straight.

I’m at a loss now and don’t know what to do anymore. I feel like I’ve tried everything and I don’t want to just let him “cry it out” and I want and need to break this habit of him sleeping in my bed also.
