Sleep or not to sleep.. That is the question

Sleep 💤😴
How's your little one sleeping?
H has never been a great sleeper, always a cat napper by day and would wake for night feeds. I remember bringing 4 bottles to bed for night feeds! Luckily we are down to 1! 
I'm not a fan of the cry it out method, I'm sure it obviously works for some, but I just can't let him cry that long, and he has a very loud cry (I'm sure my new neighbours love us!). So I still rock H to sleep at night. Put him asleep in his cot. He stirs quite a bit thoughout & then wakes for a night feed. I do envy those show babies sleep through early on! I cannot wait for the night of a full nights sleep. Bliss and something to look forward to.
I am my own worst enemy as I make it harder for myself. In the day when H naps I let him sleep on me. If I put him down he will only nap for up to 30 mins, whereas If he sleeps on md it could from 1-3 hours! It gives me some me time, albeit I can't move, but I catch up on soaps of surf the web, plus I love the cuddles! 
Or he will sleep in his pram or caraway If we're out & about. 

How is your little one sleeping & what's daily routine?
