How long do you hold her after she falls asleep? My almost one year falls asleep in my arms then I have to hold her for like 20 minutes after then put her in her crib

Thanks ladies! I thought about a rock n play, I just wasn't sure if it was safe for sleeping.

My son was like that until I figured out the his bassinet pad wasn't soft enough. Luckily ours came apart. What I did was wrap a receiving blanket around the pad. Then put the cover sheet back over it then he slept on his back no problem. Maybe try to wrapping a blanket around it tightly. It might just not be soft enough for her.

mine hated the bassinet too! We tried a rock n play and that worked a lot better. I think being on a slight incline made her more comfortable. we moved her to her crib at 3 months and she transitioned fine

@mama_kay I haven't tried our crib yet, but I really want to have her in our room for now. I hope you have better luck soon! I know I'm about to lose my mind and it's only been a week. Lol

I laid with her on my chest at night.. so I didn't sleep much, but she slept good on her back in her crib. My daughter is 2 months now & im having the hardest time keeping her asleep after laying her down anywhere. She wakes up right away! & cries until me or her dad pick her up.

@mama_kay How did you get any rest at night? I'm having a really hard time. My husband and I have to take turns staying up with her, but it's usually mostly me staying up because she has to nurse so often.

My daughter didn't sleep in hers either.
