Sleeping in next to me cot

I’m trying to do the same! I’m also trying to move away from feeding to sleep, so for that first wake up after putting her down ask my husband to rock and cuddle her to get her back to sleep. If I’m awake I wait about a minute just to give her w chance to get herself back to sleep, if I’m asleep and she wakes up crying I usually just pick her up when I wake up. It’s hard bc she sleeps so much better in our bed, so feel like to do this I’m giving up what little sleep I do get to try to persevere with getting her in the next to me for the whole night
Omg literally in the same boat like im all for the cuddles and he sleeps so well next to me but he will NOT sleep or settle in his next to me at all now unless we transfer when he’s deep and then it’s only for a while. My partner used to do the weekends but can’t now because he won’t sleep in the bed with baby like me which is understandable. Plus he’s learned to roll but can’t roll when I’m laying next to him x
Sooo tricky! I have similar issues with my little girl 🫣 I have been trying picking her up and cuddling/rocking my daughter when she cries and then resettling her back down after a few moments when she’s dozy again - or if she’s ready for a feed I’ll feed and then cuddle/resettle - she doesn’t always stay down but I feel like I need to keep trying at least personally. I have also noticed sometimes she whimpers and wriggles and it seems like she’s waking but actually if I wait it out a few more seconds she’s actually still asleep and just in active sleep! Again, not always though 😅
