During the middle of the night, give him the warmth of your cuddles and hugs, but don't talk to him or give him eye contact. Also, keep the lights as low as possible and don't turn on the TV, even if you're up for awhile. Other than the warmth of your cuddles, he needs very little stimulation during these middle of the night hours. By the way, he's not being stubborn, he's just being a baby. The sleepless nights won't last forever.
P.S. Drink lots of coffee :) |
