My three month old won't sleep anywhere but in my arms. I've tried laying him down when he's sleepy but not asleep, I've tried laying him down when he's asleep, I've tried leaving the room and letting him cry (no more than ten minutes of crying), I've tried waiting with him until he falls asleep...I've tried tons of stuff and nothing works. He will stay awake until he gets so tired he's screaming his head off but even then he can fall asleep and wake right back up if I put him down. Idk how he got like this because he used to sleep in the rock n play. I'm not sure what to do.

am going thru this since my son was born n he is 6weeks. sigh. its hard... he did well this morning.. but back to his way again. lol he is in my arms as we speak...
@fabledturtle, thank you ❤️ I guess you're right. He has reflux so he needs comfort a lot because he doesn't feel good :/
I totally get that. We ended up starting to cosleep when she was 7 months old. You have to do what works for you! He must just need that extra comfort, you shouldn't feel guilty. There really isn't any right answer just keep trying different things until one day it clicks. When we finally got my daughter to sleep on her own she was up every 2 to 3 hours and I had to rock her back to sleep. It was exhausting. @inkymomma_
@fabledturtle, I wish I knew what to do. I'm a single mom so I have to hold him to get any sleep. I've resorted to cosleeping which I get crucified for all the time because it's "dangerous", but I have no idea what else to do. If I don't hold him, he screams until he's in a full sweat, purple face, can't breathe. He does that until he's being held. I can't just let him be like that.
My daughter was the same way. It took us a while to get her to sleep anywhere but our arms, we took shifts sleeping. Swaddling helped us a lot but obviously that isn't the answer for everyone. Sorry,I am not much help. It does get better. @inkymomma_
Hang in there, I'm sure you're both doing great
