The only place I can set down my boy is in his car seat when he's sleeping in order to get anything…

They usually do not advise you doing that due to baby's being unable to move their head and possibly restricting their breathing. A baby died in a day care because of sleeping in a car seat (probably pretty rare but that's why it's advised against). That being said could you baby wear or maybe a bassinet or swing... Something with a slight incline? Swaddling may also help.

I don't have anything yet to baby wear. I want a baby sling so I can have him with me and still get stuff done. he doesn't like his bassinet, like I said, if I out him anywhere else he screams and cries. Same with a swing. @bonniesue

I was just thinking perhaps he likes the incline of the car seat. Trying to think of safer alternatives. How does he handle swaddling?

girl do whatever you think works... I had my daughter sleep in her swing for what weeks straight.. naps and at night. she wanted me to keep carrying her but I don't have the strength to. if you baby stays quiet in the car seat then go for it.. just keep an eye out on her ♡♡ @morninglight

swaddling is kind of half and half, I think. he fights to get his arms out. @bonniesue

As long as you're not just leaving him there and not checking on him it's fine, it's because of their heads laying forward and restricting breathing

@bianca_rose I get too paranoid to not check on him. Even if I can manage to set him down long enough to go to another room I go running back to make sure he's okay.

That's what I do too
