How did y'all get your co-sleeping newborns to switch to a bassinet? My stepmom makes me feel like…

don't make her feel bad for you just being a mom. if you want your baby too sleep with you that's YOUR choice. definitely not hers. but if you really thinking about it swaddle her and start putting her down for naps in the bassinet. if she wakes up rock her too sleep and put her back. it's exhausting but eventually she'll get the hang of it

He hates the bassinet lol, he can be knocked completely out and I I put him in the bassinet, he's up screaming a minute later. And I gotta get him right back out @nikolaismommy

👆👆👆👆 shes right! or you can just buy a "Baby Snuggle Nest for infants". it is your baby && you get to choice weather you want your baby to sleep with you or not

Ignore her! If you are a deep sleeper or move a lot without knowing then a bassinet would be your best bet. If you are like me and are a very light and careful sleeper then there is nothing wrong with it. My daughter slept with me from the time she got out of nicu till about 3-4 months then occasionally slept with me or I kept her in bed after she wanted to feed and even now she is a year old and still occasionally sleeps with me. Do what you feel is best

yeah my son was the same exact way...it's that they're going from a really warm spot (you arms) and moved too a cold bassinet. Hold him in your arms while he's swaddled (him swaddled is really important because NB are know too scare themselves awake because they're so out in the open instead of all curled up in mommy's belly) or hold him with another blanket it your arms long enough for your heat and scent can be passed too the blanket and lay it down with him.

I co-sleep and I would knock someone out for saying that. 😅

if youre a careful sleeper who cares, its your child no one elses..

My son was the same he didnt like the bassinet at all , I would carry him to put him to sleep by the time I put him on the bassinet he would wake up it was and everyday thing till I just put him in the bed with me and he would knocked out , till he was born till right now his age is 4 he still sleeps with me I could never get him to sleep on his crib or toddler bed lol

Try a rock n play sleeper. My son loves his! And don't let anyone make u feel bad for co-sleeping. I wish my son would co-sleep but he has reflux and can't lay straight down :/ good luck mama

We hate out bassinet as well .... But we've had great luck sleeping in our manaroo swing. We don't always turn the swing on I think he just likes the cozy tightness of it rather than being free in the large bassinet.

I coslept with my daughter. The kicker? She slept on my chest every single night for at least a couple weeks. And then it happened every few weeks. All while less than six months old. It's up to you where you're child sleeps. Not anyone else.

WOW how rude of her! Ugh if you're worried about having him in bed with you but don't necessarily WANT to switch him to a bassinet you should get one of these bed sharing bassinets :)
