oh my goodness. i can relate. totally, totally. my guy isn't ALWAYS like that but he is very very much an on-the-go baby who has had phases of the behaviour you described. the few weeks before he crawled he was exactly like your little...
good call to just let go of the idea of any kind of training right now. just do whatever works for the time being! it might be a phase, like someone suggested, and maybe soon he'll just start sleeping better with no "help" from you. I...
