Hi,
The last 2 months my son (10 months) wont stay in his cot anymore :( he used to be such a good sleeper, slept through the night from about a month old! The last 2 months(ish) he will go down fine but after a couple of hours will wake up and scream till we put him in bed with us. I don't know what to do :( I've tried putting his dummy back in and putting my hand on his tummy to calm him down, and waiting till he falls asleep and trying to put him back in his own bed but he just screams and till he's in our bed. Help i don't know what else to do. Hubby and I don't sleep well with him in with us as he spreads out and we end up on the edge and he kicks us while asleep. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Tia

Btw he's not hungry ect and will go straight back to sleep when in bed with us. Also hes pretty good with his day sleeps its just at night.
I feel your pain! My little man was the same. It is definitely hard work but what I did is when he started to cry I would go in and settle him till he had calmed down., I would then walk out of the room and if he started to cry give him a minute or two then walk in and settle him again. It was about two weeks of repeating this before I saw the benefits but eventually he calmed down and started sleeping through the night again. Also make sure your bubs room is quiet and calm eg no bright lights from outside ect. Good luck :) - PS if it does not get any better there are sleep schools that may be able to help or give you more tips.
