    Confused by sleeping arrangements - please help!

    I thought the same thing....... I was desparate to not move her to her own room at just 9 weeks old but she was too big for her moses basket and her cot wouldn't fit in our room so we had no choice really. The first couple of nights were really hard, particularly because she slept straight...

    Book Advise!

    I've got the Gina Ford book (contented Little baby) and although I haven't follwed it to the letter I have taken loads of tips from it and I think it's quite good. IMO I would have found it too difficult to be too strict with it as it says that baby should sleep from 7 -7 and I don't really...
