My 13 day old daughter is very hard to keep sleeping at night. Even for naps. My 2 older children weren't this difficult. I've discovered she just wants to sleep on your chest or in your arms. I try to let her cry for a min, try to give her nookie. She spits it out... Cries even more. Pick her up give her milk she's completely quiet. Lay her down 6 mins later you get my point. We're at 2.5oz every 2 hours I just can't do the walk away let her cry for 15 mins thing. She's a newborn & I feel like she needs her mama. Any advice or tips

Maybe try swaddles? Gives her the feeling of being held

are you against sleeping with her? she probably just wants to be close to you or at least the scent of you around

Did you try one of those swaddler sleep sacks? Only thing that worked for me, I didn't try it until she was like 5 wks though but it was amazing

I do swaddle her she doesn't seem to like it much. Haven't tried an actual sleep swaddle sacks?? I'll look it up. She's next to our bed in a glider, & I tried a bassinet.
