• From womb to world, your baby has
gone through a lot and it doesn’t
want to sleep without you.

• Despite this, many parents spend
early weeks trying to get the baby

into the cot.

• A change in mindset to expect and
accept baby wanting to be near you
can help.

• Make the time more pleasant and do
something you like to do when you

are caring for your baby.

• Take turns in holding baby, and rest
when not your turn. Baby will slowly
be wiling to go into bed after a few
weeks.

• Keeping baby close will help build a
secure attachment helping them to

trust you and become calmer and less
fretful.
