1st Q - 3 mo active body while sleeping?

post #1 of 2
Thread Starter 
My 3 mo son has been co-sleeping with us since day one and we love it - for the last month almost every morning around 4am (sometimes waits til 530) he kicks his legs, punches his arms, and turns his head from side to side with his eyes closed. Sometimes I can nurse him back to calm, quiet sleep for about 15 mins but then the games begin again. The only cure is to wake him up fully and walk him around for 40-60 mins until he falls back asleep for another hour or maybe two if I'm lucky. Has anybody had any experience similar to this? Thoughts? Advice?

Thank you!

My 5mo does this half the night. We swaddle her... still moves her head back and forth though. It's the only way we get any sleep.
