Newborn Sleeping Arrangements

My 2 month old twins have been demanding to sleep in their swings or bouncy chairs instead of lying flat in their bassinet or cribs... If I try to put them in crib or bassinet they cry and I didn't think they were old enough to let them try to cry it out so I go pick them up... Any advice or thoughts?

Re: Newborn Sleeping Arrangements

My twins slept in the bouncy seats for the first two months. DD started sleeping in the crib around 3 months, but DS slept in the swing until he was 5.5 months old. Then we did CIO to get him to sleep in the crib.
I'd just leave them where they are comfortable for now. That way they and YOU can get some rest.

Re: Newborn Sleeping Arrangements

Could they have reflux? Maybe lying on their backs make them uncomfortable. DS wouldn't sleep anywhere but in our arms at night or the swing for naps for months and months. IMO, you need to whatever works and whatever will let you get some sleep.
