Re: Helmet sleeping problems

[Guest guest]

Hi there Rick

I do think it is a question of letting them find their own position

(although it does depend how loud and long they cry!) I'm guessing

you have excluded things like over-heating (room/too many clothes)

as well- might be worth keeping it coolish as I think if they

overheat they get all hot and bothered and cry more. Good luck- this

rarely persists if that makes you feel better.
