Baby in Bassinet

I’d recommend a love to dream swaddle. Get your baby to be somewhat asleep on you then transfer Make sure their feet touch the bassinet before anything else x
@𝗄𝖾𝗅𝗌𝖾𝗒 does this work for 22 months old too 🤣🤣🤣 .her sleep is my real issue.
@Charlotte i only have a 4 day old so no expert but id try anything 🤣🫶🏼
@𝗄𝖾𝗅𝗌𝖾𝗒 1000% love the LTD swaddles and used them for all 3 of my babies. Honestly couldn’t recommend them enough! @Chelsea you could also try some things like white/pink noise, red sound activated night light, pre warming the bassinet with a heat pack and a t-shirt of yours so it smells like you (obviously removing both before you place baby down)
Thanks for the tips! I will give those a try tonight. As for the 22 mo old.. I have a 2.5 yr old who now wants to sleep in my bed too. It’s a bit of a circus at my house at night right now 🫠 Hoping it gets better. I completely forgot that newborns only give you a couple hours of sleep at most. Is anyone getting more than 2 hrs at a time?
@Chelsea my little girl is having serious witching hours on 12-4am constant on & off feeding. But during day and before bed she’s so good at giving us more hours Me & my partner are taking it in turns napping atm Take everyday as it comes 🫶🏼 I know it can be hard nevermind with your other little one too x
@Chelsea I’ve been getting 3-4hr stretches. And i understand the circus 🤣 it’s proper mad house rn - I tend to feed the baby when trying to settle my other two in their room
Do you use a swaddle? Are you getting any decent stretches of sleep at night?
