*not interested in sleep training*

I have a four month old girl, who before she turned four months was a pretty decent sleeper. Good 6-7 hour stretches, feed and back to bed. Since she’s turned four months (and yes I understand the sleep cycle changes) — she’s been cosleeping with me. We recently put in a sidecar crib where it extends our bed for better safety and more space. We have a great bedtime routine, bath, hatch, don’t feed to sleep, etc. She has NO PROBLEM falling asleep. I am pushing her wake windows to 90min, sometimes 2 hours, but that is pushing it for her.

I am completely fine with our sleeping setup and obviously, not interested in any sort of training. However, she wakes after every sleep cycle and will not sleep on her back alone anymore. I mean she has to have me snuggle her or be on me. I don’t mind a wake or two in the night, after all she is a baby. But after every single cycle is exhausting, literally 20-30 minutes she stirs herself awake. She will not nap even ten minutes in a crib or bassinet, only on me.

When will she be able to connect cycles again and get long stretches? Will she be able to sleep alone in her crib again (me right there)? Did solids help? Belly sleep? Come with time?

Has anyone had this situation and eventually been able to lay down with them and they stay asleep? Maybe even get to roll out of bed eventually and they stay asleep?

Thanks everyone!!

Naps 3.5-4 hours a day (contact).
