@geraldinetov, I have that and he doesn’t want to sleep in it at all

I would recommend you get a bassinet that goes on the bed, my son hated his crib until he was 3 months. So he slept in his bassinet until we switched him to his crib.

Try cuddling with the swaddle blanket before you swaddle. Mamas smell is comforting to them it may help

I swaddle my baby girl and it helps her sleep in her bassinet.

@beachcutie0808, I am definitely going to try everything

@d-lane-knee11, yes I swaddle him and everything and he still doesn’t want to sleep in his bed

This is my 3rd time having a newborn NEITHER of my other two would allow me to put them in the crib or anything at night so I co-slept, bc I felt it was easier to breastfeed. But this time with our newborn my husband bought a actual swaddle blanet and it helped with my newbie. She slept longer and she sleeps in her bassinet. Without the swaddle her wild motion of her hands kept waking her and making her mad. So maybe go buy one and trg that too.

Have you tried swaddling him? He needs to feel like he’s being held.

I would just keep trying different things until you find what works for you and him. I know it’s hard, it’s been hard for me too. I already have a 3 year old I co sleep with so putting the baby in the bed with me is not an option, and I’m like you and don’t feel okay with holding him and sleeping. 😔

@dee2115, It one of the side sleepers for the bed and I just recently moved it to my moms bed and he slept in it fine but not in my bed!!!

I am buying a swing today lol I Love he wants to be on me all the time and yes sleepless nights I’ve had but I wouldn’t trade them for nothing

No, definitely don’t sleep holding him. I’m going through the same thing with my new born. Does he just not like his bassinet? We had to try a few different ones with my son until we finally found one that he liked. Consistency is key. Just through out the day when he falls asleep try putting him in it every time.

@alyssa5792, I know I love holding him but I am scared to sleep holding him!
