When she is shuffling her arms are flaying around and her hands are going round in circles near her ears and her legs are all bent in (as if she has wind). I have to get up and put her back on her side which sometimes doesnt work as five mins later she has shuffled back on her to back! when she was a new born she used to sleep on her back but again her legs used to be bent in and she used to shuffle so my mother in law suggested i out her on her side and prop a pillow next to her back to support her. She still sleeps in our room and I would like to move her into her own room but the way things are going I know I am going to be up during the night seeing to her so its easier to keep her in my room. She used to sleep 12 hours straight through but since her last lot of jabs she now wakes during the night, I did start to feed her as I thought she was hungry but the last two I havent and instead taken into our bed and cuddled her, she is half asleep when I do this. please help, I know I am doing something wrong as this doesnt feel right but this is my first (and only as now too old to have another) child> I am going back to work in July and dreading the nights in case she still wakes up. thank you Lisa Hello

She has to have a soother, whether its nursing to sleep, being rocked, or just cuddled. I understand that she still needs to be fed during the night, but we shouldn't have to fight with her just to get her to sleep. What can we do to get her to go to sleep easier without a soother?

Is that bad and would it affect his sleep or does it not really make a difference? My 6 month old sleeps with a small night light on.
