Any suggestions on how to get your child (3 months old) to sleep on a flat surface, like a crib or pack n play? He will only sleep a max of 20 min on a flat surface but hours cuddling you, in a swing, or in a rock n play. He has learned to like his room and his crib (he used to scream every time the first month you walked in because he didn't want his diaper changed). He has never liked to be swaddled since the second he was born so that doesn't help. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

I'm not sure, maybe move the pack and play where he normally takes naps or sleep. My son is the opposite. He doesn't like to be cuddled but he will lay on the floor and play. He sleeps in his pack and play at night and naps in his rocker thing or swing during the day.

I read somewhere that a woman would put a heating pad in the crib to warm the mattress a bit. Obviously she'd take it out before it got too hot or before the baby went in, but the baby liked the warmness.

I had to make my daughter nap in her pack n play. You have to be consistent i didn't let her cry it out though if she cried I would rub her belly or pick her up then put her back once she was sleep. It's tiring at first but so worth it! She only slept on my chest or in her swing too until almost 4 months I thought I would never sleep alone again lol good luck!

@mz_young, I've tried starting with naps in his pack n play or his crib but lately he literally wakes the second you put him down in them🙄 He's never slept as much as he should so the second he wakes up from a nap, he's not going back down which makes it soooo hard to try to get him used to it.

Yea that's how my daughter was. It's exhausting and hard at first but it will get better
