FTM... no judgement please only help.
I'm looking for advice on bed sharing safely.
Also any advice on trying to get my LO to sleep in his bassinet. I would rather co-sleep but he hates his bassinet and being away from me
I saw this cool thing at target that's called a bed sharing bassinet! It goes in between you and your partner or just beside you in bed so they're in bed with you but still In their own space. I thought the concept was kinda cool! I'm a FTM so I don't have experience with it personally though
@mommacee2be, we slept with her for months in between us and I did what you did as well I'd sleep with her on my chest but in the middle of the bed with pillows on the side of me
@mommyagain, I have no issue with co-sleeping/bed sharing. I just want to do or the best way I can. We are going on week 2 and I want to reduce all the risk I can. He's been sleeping on my chest. :/
Nothing wrong with co sleeping my daughter is 14 months and she NEVER really slept in her own bed she's just now learning thank goodness because the new baby will need her spot.
Iv cosleept for about 10 months, your mother instincts are always there so even well your asleep your aware of baby. Also always put pillows or something so bubs doesnt fall off the bed (:
If you don't want baby in bed with you you can buy little beds that go in your bed. I had one for my daughter until she grew out of that then I allowed her to sleep next to me. Always between me and hubby and blankets no higher that under her arms. Pillows a good distance from the face.
I called the pediatricians office today to get some advice on the baby’s reflux. It was recommended to have him either sleep in a swing at night or create an incline in his bassinet to help keep the reflux at bay. But I’m worried about his head slouching to the side and cutting off his airways!
Instead of buying a bassinet could my baby sleep in a pack and play beside my bed or a rock and play,until I feel safe with him sleeping in his crib in another room? I see no need in buying a bassinet when he will only be able to sleep in it for a few months anyways. No rude comments! 😀
Okay mommas, this is our second night home and little Ryder refuses to sleep in his bassinet. I’ve tried swaddling, feeding him before bed so he isn’t hungry, tried 3 different pacifiers, laid him down awake and asleep. Any ideas?? I just don’t know how else to get him to sleep in his bassinet and not in my arms at night.
** I had no problem with my other two boys laying in their beds but Ryder refuses to leave me.**
So I have a 3 day old newborn and she will not sleep in her bassinet .. She just wants me to hold her while she sleeps and we all know that is tiring so any tips or advice ?
So, any advice on taking care of a sunburnt one and a half year old?? Especially when they are sleeping. My son moves around in his sleep so he didn't sleep much last night. He got burnt on his arms, hands and back😭😣
@emkasting, thank you it's worth looking at.
