My bub is 13 weeks old. I can't get him to sleep in his cot during the day. He is great at night but during the day will only cat nap in his vibrating chair or in my arms. I have tried in the cot and he just wakes every 10 minutes or so and I have to go back in to settle him and put his dummy back in. I have a mobile and "Ewan the Sheep " but neither help during the day. Any suggestions?

If he sleeps great at night I wouldn't worry about during the day. Just let him sleep where he sleeps.
Completely normal! Look up "the baby sleep company " on Facebook and look through their videos for advice (I recall one on this topic a little while back).
There are a few things you can try.
-white noise. - set a radio on to the static between stations. It needs to be quite noisey.
-dim the lights. Let a small amount of light in through the curtains.
-swaddle.
Good luck.
Both of mine catnapped until six or so months.
Hey mama!
Baby wearing will save your sanity! Definitely look in to it. Bubs was inside you for 9months and laying alone in a cot doesn't feel right. Their instinct is to be close to you. Good luck xx
