Where does your baby sleep at night?

Mine sleeps in the bassinet that came with our stoller. At first he was in a regular bassinet, but he hates it. Then the pack and play,no longer likes that. For a short period of time he would only sleep in his bouncy seat, but since I'm nervous about that I stoped that fast. I'm just curious if my baby is the only baby fussy about where he sleeps!

Your not alone. Landon loves to sleep in the swing (not turned on) he will sttn in the swing but not in his cradle. I only had a few succesul nights where he sttn in the cradle. I want to get him out of the swing sooner than later but not sure how.

Re: Where does your baby sleep at night?

DD slept in the pnp for the 1st 6 weeks and is now in her crib. But if your baby is very little, I wouldnt worry about where he sleeps now as long as he is happy and safe which it sounds like he is! He'll eventually get to the crib!

Re: Where does your baby sleep at night?

I'm glad that I'm not alone but this whole sleeping thing is stessing me out so much! I feel like he is never going to transition to the crib

Re: Where does your baby sleep at night?

With DC #1, he hated everything, so he slept in the soothing glider next to my bed for about 2 months. After 2 months I put him in the crib and he was fine. I too thought he would never transition to a crib.

DC#2, basinett for one week and then in the crib she went. No problem

Don't stress...he will transition to the crib. Try to put him the crib for naps. Even if he wakes up right away, just continue to lay him down until he gets used to it and comfortable with it.

Re: Where does your baby sleep at night?

dd slept in her pnp for the first month then we moved her to the crib no problem. but we had her take naps in the crib before hand so she was used to it.

Re: Where does your baby sleep at night?

when DD was a newborn the only place she would sleep was in her carseat carrier. then she finally started in her bassinet.

Re: Where does your baby sleep at night?

James will pretty much sleep anywhere, the bassinet, the PNP, his crib, the swing, his carseat...

We had him sleeping in the bassinet next to our bed for the first month, but he was a VERY noisy sleeper, so we moved him into his crib at exactly one month old. We did it cold turkey and he's absolutely fine in there now. He'll nap anywhere, but at night, he's in the crib.

Re: Where does your baby sleep at night?

I had issues with DD#1 but I think I played into that alot< DD#2 went into crib day 1. I layed her on her side more because DD#1 hated being on her back so I tied this dirrerently with DD#2. It worked she can sleep anywhere! SHes 6 months old now

In bed with me

Re: Where does your baby sleep at night?

My girls are only 3 weeks but they have been in the crib since day 1....And in the pack and play during the day.

My son hated everything and was in the swing till over 6 months!

Re: Where does your baby sleep at night?

When DS was little he was in the bassinet in my room and I did the same with DD.

Re: Where does your baby sleep at night?

DD sleeps in her crib...so did DS

Re: Where does your baby sleep at night?

Until she was 5 weeks old, DD slept in her swing in our room every night. Now she refuses to sit in it at all. She used to hate being put in her crib. Now, we put a mobile in it, and she likes it. She'll only nap consistently in her bouncy seat. She NEVER liked the bassinet.

So, no, you don't have the only fussy sleeper out there!

Re: Where does your baby sleep at night?

for months, DS wouldn't sleep anywhere except in our arms. He eventually took naps in the swing, but wouldn't sleep in there at night and would wake up and scream if we put him down. By 6 months old, he was able to sleep next to us, but still wouldn't sleep in the crib or PNP. We finally transitioned him to the crib at 10 months old. He has to be asleep before we transfer him or he'll get hysterical. I'm just happy he's finally in the crib.

Re: Where does your baby sleep at night?

At night, DD has slept in her room, in her crib since she first came home.

During the day, she slept in her swing or on a blanket on the floor until she fell into a regular nap schedule. Then, naps were in her crib too.

DS may be in his crib right away for naps since it won't be as quiet in the family room as it was for DD.

Re: Where does your baby sleep at night?

DS was in his crib since he came home.

He was swaddled and wasn't moving so I did have some blankets to take up some space so it wasn't as scary being in a small space.
Once he started moving, they came out.

Re: Where does your baby sleep at night?

First 12 weeks he slept pretty well in PNP in our room. (bassinet part)

Then we coslept until he was 7 months old. Moved him into the crib and he STTN from that day forward. Has never slept out of his crib since.

Re: Where does your baby sleep at night?

from day 1 my DS slept in his crib. He would nap during the day in his swing though.

Re: Where does your baby sleep at night?

My DD went from hating the crib, to hating the bassinet, to hating the moses basket. For the first month of her life it was like a game trying to figure out where she would sleep. Some nights she was in the bed with me, some nights I would keep putting her in the bassinet and she'd wake up all night long. Then for about 3 weeks she would ONLY sleep on the couch, so DH and I took turns sleeping on the couch with her. We would pull the large arm chair up against it so she couldn't fall off. At about 6-7 weeks I started putting her in the crib. It's still tough getting her to stay asleep when we put her down in there, but she's slowly getting better.
