we put the moses basket in the next to me now, as we had the same problem
@Ellie it does actually! I never thought of her sleeping in that, I will try that tomorrow night! Thank you x
@Akansha yeah I’ve tried this, she sleeps whilst my hand is on her then I’ll move it and within 10 minutes she’s awake🙈🤣 thank you though xxxx
@claire I think I’m going to have to buy a Moses basket🤣x
@Chantelle there’s loads of second hand ones on Facebook marketplace but they recommend a new mattress
@Chantelle or roll a blanket up so she feels something around her by her sides
Me and my partner had the same issue with our 3 week old! We have a sleepy head that we now put inside the next to me and she sleeps so much better! We properly tuck her in with a blanket and she’ll wake around every 3/4hours x
@Rebecca im going to try this!! Thank you xxx
I used a rolled up towel or sheet into a sausage shape and place under the sheet in the crib, this creates a cocoon for my little girl and she sleep perfectly now, they did this for her whilst she had jaundice in hospital at 1 day old and have been doing it ever since xx
Update- She slept soo gooodd last night! 11-3am and then 4am-8am😆😆 this was with the sleepyhead in the next to me😁 thank you for your advice hopefully she sleeps good tonight too🥰
Does your pram have a bassinet? That’s safe to sleep in and much smaller, my little boy much preferred it to next to me until 4 weeks but we also have a Moses basket second hand which was better too
