dear son used to behave like this when he is 2 mths old. Its really terrible cos I carried him to sleep and he falll aslp deeply in my arms. But the moment I place him on his cot, he wailed so badly! The butt just touched the cot only, he can wailed like no tml and refused to sleep anymore!
So what I do is to set a routine like what candy_ian mummy mentioned. Get him sponged, diaper changed, drink his milk and then tell him its time for him to sleep . Carried him, sing him lullaby, and whne he fall alsp deeply, slowly place him on his cot. Then when he sleep obediently, I praised him by his ear softly. And gave him a goodnite kiss.
This take me alot of time to let him get used to sleep. Slowly, he know after the sponging, diaper chg, and milk, he can get ready to sleep ..
Firstly, u hv to be patience cos baby can sense when u r trying very hard to make them sleep. The more u rush, the more they sense it. Secondly, make sure when u pat the baby, another hand is holding her down gently so that she will not figet. Lastly, before u move away, make sure your girl is already asleep for about 10mins, before u slowly move your hands away but dun walk off first cos some babies are light sleeper, once u move away from them, they will wake up. Trust me.....my kids never sleeeeeeeeep................hi all, any suggestion like how to coax baby to sleep?? my gal refuse to fall aslp. whenever i try to pat her to sleep, she will make herself sudden alert when she was about to doze off. pls kindly advise. thanks:tsad:

Good luck! My boy is a super-fussy-light-sleeper so 99% of babies should be better sleepers. Ha...yup.. try all this.. all not working for her..

(He had to be carried & bounced to sleep until 14 months old; just started sleeping through night without milk at 18 months old.) When you feel challenged, think of us.
