Just really wondering if anyone else has the same problem as us & has any tips...

Liam has been waking up to 10x in the night & when we go in he's sitting up. We lie him back down & he goes straight back to sleep. He definitely knows how to lie back down from sitting but he's probably half asleep & gets all confused . It's not a huge problem because 9/10 he goes straight back to sleep but it can be a little annoying when we're getting up so often... (well mostly DH is if the truth be told!).

We used to use a safety sleep but he eventually learnt how to undo it & would twist around in it so not really keen to break it out again.

is this "normal"??

i assume it is normal as E does it thought mostly before we go to bed at night... he does sit up looking for his dummy in the night sometimes(down side of cot).. so yes sounds normal!:)

Yup, Eimear's immediate reflex when she wakes at night is to sit up.

I would try the safety sleep again - safety pin it down so he can't un-do it ... as I couldn't get up 10x a night! But I'm someone who really needs my sleep.

I'm sure he will feel better with a good nights sleep too!!
