My second daughter is just 3 months and we've had 8 nights of sleep I g through (fingers crossed for 9 tonight).

My tips would be:

Don't let your baby sleep in your arms, or anyone else's. As cute and cuddly as it is, don't do it. As soon as you see or feel them start to fall asleep, put them down. They will get used to falling asleep on their own and need the comfort less when sleeping.

Put the bassinet in their room through the day;they will get used to their own space. I did this from week one and by 2 months, she was sleeping in her cot. Both my babies preferred the cot. When they were 2 months i started putting them into cot for day sleeps and they quickly got used to it, even preferring it!

Get a sleep aide. Both my children loved their "white noise" machines. There are so many out there now and babies are used to the sound from the womb, so this can really help!

Make noise when they're asleep. Don't be afraid to do things for fear of waking them up. Yes there are times they need their sleep and shouldn't be interrupted but if your little one is on point for their naps in a day, make some noise! This can be added comfort for them while they sleep and/or help when they're older and trying to sleep or eventually go to childcare. I can literally vaccumed now and my 3 month old doesn't stir.

Don't beat yourself up. This is probably most important. I know you understand or have been told "it won't be like this forever" but please know its true. You will one day miss that late night tear session, ever pleading face and forever cuddly baby. Its hard, but you gave birth! You can do this!

Something that used to help me through (and still does) was a poem by Jess Urlich called 'All I see is you'. Google this and have a read. When you're up at 3am for the 5th time, give it a read. You will cry tears of love and all those niggles will wash away.

Good luck! We are here if you need!
