Owen had a short phase of occasionally headbutting the cot bars - it was only really when he was going to sleep and I learned to recognise the noise so went in swiftly and intervened. I guess some folk use cot bumpers but I had probably irrational safety worries about them. It hasn't been a problem for ages though.
Do hope the nights improve soon - it's really tough. Some babies seem to gradually improve naturally, others don't manage it before the parents reach not-coping-point and unfortunately doesn't seem to be any way of figuring out which category your baby is in in advance, or indeed being able to predict exactly how far you are from your not-coping-point.
