Firstly this habit of moving the cradle is very wrong as this rocking sensation is what bcom a bad habit. Later on this changes to rocking on hands arms and legs. It's going to be taxing for u. So pls stop. He's still young to mould him well. So pls firstly Make him sleep on ur bed next to u. Ensure that his feeds are given while he's still asleep Put soft music or story telling C.d on which will lull him to sleep Dim lights in ur room. Keep a.c on or fan on and make him wear breathable loose clothes. Give him his soft furry blanket so he can move his hand on it for comfort. Once u hav ensured that all his irritation criteria is met with, lie down nxt to him with ur palm on his chest and let him drift off. Don't Pat him on his chest. Don't cave in to his pressure or tears immediately. Let him cry for a while. Any thing u give instantly he will quickly learn how to control u. So be firm.

Ur baby is already used to it by now so honestly it will be very difficult to suddenly stop. I'd suggest start using other methods such as story telling, talking or singing softly and such. Give ur baby a warm bath and a pat gently. My 2 year old started getting off this rocking habit after I introduced these alternatives. All the best.

Thank you both of u for the advice.I have started to slow down the cradle and when I find him sleepy I keep him near me on the bed.At times he's sleepy and cranky that time I have to put him the cradle and move.I also put songs and sing then he sleeps.
