Do you wait until LO is asleep before putting them down?
Up until the last few days Matilda has had her bath, had a feed and then fallen asleep in my arms and I'd put her to bed (in her basket in our room). The last few days, however, she has not liked being cuddled - she really fights, almost like she feels a bit claustrophobic and frustrated. SO we have started putting her in her basket and seeing if she settles herself - took her about 30 mins yesterday and she's been in there about 15 now.
I can hear her on the monitor and she is by no means crying hysterically - just the occassional moan / grizzle. Is this okay? Does anyone else do this?

I usually have to go through this 3 or 4 times before she'll eventually stay asleep when I put her down.
During the day she does sometimes fall asleep in her bouncer or swing and I try to transfer her into the cot - but she always wakes up. So we haven't got that sorted yet.

I really feel like we've taken a massive step back - although the extra sleep was great! Just hoping things go better tonight. So far she fell asleep in my arms but has stayed asleep in her basket from 9pm til now. Just have to get her up to our room now and hope she stays asleep and that I can settle her back down after her night feeds....
