Co-sleeping with 6 month old?

What ur going through is perfectly normal.and I had to do the same thing.I basically started off by rocking him then laying him down in his bed, if he awoke I rocked again and tried a bottle if rocking didn't help, then if that didn't work I'd co-sleep. Basically I did that for about a month but each night his sleep by himself got longer and longer without me there.some nights I preferred to have him by myside cuz I was so sleepy.but I'd say it took me 2 full months to transition him to his crib thru the night on his own.so just try each night to lay him down then I u have to rock him each time he awake and over time u will just be able to go in there and pat his back.but each time don't turn on lights.try to keep it as sleep friendly as possible and If ur gonna talk to him speak very softly so it doesn't overstimulate him, even if he gets up to feed.
