Help!

Look into safe co-sleeping if you are comfortable. My baby was the same way and co-sleeping just seemed to be the only answer .

Sleep with him. He misses you, just got through a separation 💔 😢 Give him all the mommy time he wants!! And ask for help! So hubby or a family member can take care of your needs, food, space and time to sleep 😴

@Erin is co sleeping safe

Definitely look into the safe sleep 7. That'll help you cosleep. Eventually he will sleep alone but my NICU baby was the same and he was only in for 2 weeks.

@Angie if done correctly, yes

When my daughter was getting attached to me (wouldn’t sleep alone I got this semi circled wedge pillow with a head dip. It represents a mummy cuddle! It’s mainly used to reflux but worked a treat for both. My daughter didn’t like to be swaddled, but maybe try that before looking into buying one.

@Angie I agree with everyone else. My baby was in special care for 2 weeks and once we got her home she only wanted to sleep on me. I never thought I'd co-sleep, but now we do it every night. We now get a solid 8hrs (1hr for feed/pumping in-between) of deep sleep a night. I follow the safe sleep 7s and have never had any scares.

If you’re not comfortable with co-sleeping (like I was), look into the baby delight brand portable bassinet. It’s mesh around the sides so they can breathe easily but you can put it in your bed or on the couch close to you so they can still see/smell/feel you. It was a great way for my 7 week old to transition into the main bassinet. Also great for visiting family/friends with no sleep station for your baby.
