I wonder if a wedge thing in his bed would give him the angle that a carseat does. We used a foam pad for dd's pack and play underneath the sheet. She slept in her bed from day one even though she woke up many times for food during the night.

Sounds normal. Have you tried swaddling him in receiving blankets/sheets? We swaddled our son until he was about 9 months old. And we stopped because he always got out of it since he could roll over.

Is he sleeping on his stomach or back? My littlest one will sleep all night on his stomach but if I put him on his back he is up within an hour if that and will do that all night long......so he sleeps on his tummy! He is just shy of 3 months old. I also have a pillow under him and the angle helps and he will sleep on his back with that. Does he have any signs of reflux?

Just keep doing what you're doing... waking is normal, my 6 mo old was up every 1-2 hours last night! It sucks, but it's completely normal.

Oh, and as for bedtime... my baby goes to bed somewhere between 7-9pm depending on nap (ideally, 8pm... but sometimes she had a super early or super late last nap)... shes up again at 10pm, and then midnight, and then I just bring her into bed with us for the rest of the night.

When you want him to.. 8-9:30 pm...

Maybe it would help to just have him take his naps during the day in his bed and then slowly transition over to having him in there at night. I know my daughter didnt sleep all the way through the night until 9 or 10 months, even though she liked her crib. So if he will actually sleep through the night anywhere I would take advantage of it.

At 6 months or way earlier mine were sleeping 8 or 9 hours straight. -
My 1 year old wakes up that often at night.
