I totally get it! When my daughter slept on me I didn't sleep. When I say I sacrificed a lot of sleep, I really barely slept. I lived off 3hr naps when my husband got home from work. It was rough.

@al_, SIDS worry me mainly because I lost my first son at 28 weeks so the unthinkable can happen in my eyes. I just want to prevent it at all cost. We bought a cosleeper to go in our bed hoping that it would help but he only wants to be under me.

Look up the fourth trimester @babyelkins2016. Your babe just wants cuddles it makes her feel safe and supported. At 1 month they still see themselves as part of you so that makes it hard. CIO isn't recommended until after 6mo I thought and even then it's highly debated on whether or not its best to do. My daughter was this way. She only slept on me. I chose to let her do things in her own time though. Gradually she became more and more independent on her own and now sleeps on her own with no issues but it happened around a year. I sacrificed a lot of sleep but realize not everybody is capable of doing that. Why is a co sleeper out of the question at night?

This is my exact situation!

Yeah I'm not sure what to do. I gave in and breastfeed him laying down and he and i were both out. When I give in he will sleep 3-4 hours. During the day he will sleep by himself. I've tried swaddling ,white noise, and purchased a co sleeper for our bed. He loves the co sleeper during the day but its out the question at night. smh

Following! My daughters only a month old but that's how she's been lately, she is fine during her naps but as soon as me and my boyfriend go to bed the only way I can get her to sleep is on my chest, so we wait awhile after she's asleep and put her in her crib and she's wide awake screaming 😩

I thoughr about letting him but his doctor was like wait til he is 4-5 months because he is to young right now. I do agree but i dont rush to pick him up. Im so tired.

My son is 5 months and still sleeps on my chest. He'll go in his bassinet sometimes but the last week he hasn't since he's sick. Break it now while you can! Start with naps. Idk how you feel about the cry it out method. But I did it with my son when I know he's super tired and he's just fighting it. He does end up falling asleep
