New Dad here. After a bottle feed and cuddle at night (expressed milk) I can’t seem to get our little one to settle. As soon as I set her down she will sleep for 2-5 minutes and be wide awake and stirring again.

Any tips as to what works for others? I can’t walk her around the house until she falls asleep as she’s on 02 so my movements are quite limited. She will comfort suck the pacifier (only if I help her keep it in) but once I think she’s asleep, I’m proven wrong.

It’s really getting me down in the dumps as I genuinely want to help mum get as much sleep as possible, but when I’m up 2-3 hours trying to get her to settle it’s getting really hard to function during the day.

Any advice is really appreciated
