Wow Brieal. How old is Brooklin? Is hubby at home as well now helping you with this. He kind of made an US decision on his own, didn't he? Is he at home helping you with Brooklin. since HE fell in love with the child. How long has he been with you, because he will be needing an adjustment time, getting used to the new noises, environment. Oh, I would be buying a sling that fit TJ, so he can learn how to take care of "His child" that "he" fell in love with.

When my guys were little, and they had a hard time sleeping, I would place my (air dried) towel that I used last, and placed it on the crib mattress, then placed babe on it. Used it like a sheet - and it seemed to help. - Also, I placed a clock in the room, that ticked loudly, cause it kind of mimics the mothers heartbeat. Are you still planning on moving to the States, now with this little one?

Oh alright I'll try that, thanks for the idea Well most probably not now depends on whether we can leave with him or not etc etc. Quite a shame, but we will survive.
Thanks Brieal

try buying johnsons bedtime baby bath & lotion, and after a full belly give him a quiet bath and a massage with the lotion, then put him in his cot ((ontop of the towel)) with soms soft music like rainforest sounds or something like that with the lights almost off.. this never failed when mine where feeling particularly clingy.. congratulations & best of luck with baby Brooklin..
