I'm glad I saw this thread as my sister in law has been experiencing a very difficult time with the baby's sleeping time. Often she has to carry her around and rock the baby to sleep. Once she sits down to rest, the baby cries aloud again. When my sister in law moved her to the cot, she cries non stop for 10 mins. Her crying is so loud that I feel like losing my temper too. Anyway, I hope one of the 2 methods is gonna be helpful. My sister in law hasn't been sleeping well and is exhausted having to carry her around each and every time. Thanks to those who have contributed to this topic.
