My daughter is nearly 5 months and will not sleep while out and about. I've got 4 other kids so I can't just stay in its not fair on them. Bur everytime I go out my 5mo just won't sleep then once we're home and she's been awake 4+ hours she's just an screaming wreck. She's fine when out and about when we're moving around she just looks around ect but I'm at my wits end. If I stay home she goes for naps no problem and her naps are usually 1/2 hrs long so I know she loves her sleep. We use the car seat while out and about now as she hates the bassinet and cries in it (probably because she can't see anything) the the chair part she hates too.

My little girl was like this in the bassinet we moved her to her bigger bit but slightly recline and she is like a different baby sleeps for hours in the pram now! We also use snooze shade white noise and the rock it xx

Seriously thinking if getting a white noise machine for pushchair x

For mine, forward facing in pram helped. She seems to wear herself off and does fall asleep, if the pram is in motion. Once she is asleep, I can stop
We do have snoozeshade as well for the odd day it's sunny in Ireland

Use a baby carrier! I used the pram about three times, and now it’s just gathering dust - baby girl won’t nap anywhere during the day, apart from on me 😅

I use the snooze shade which covers the whole pram and I always use a portable white noise machine. Recently baby has been ‘off’ and won’t sleep in the pram or cot during the day so I’ve been having to use the carrier but ultimately I know this is just a phase

My daughter is the same. She’s 1 now but has literally never really slept in her buggy even when she was younger, max I would get is about 20 mins and that stopped when she turned about 9 months old and she’d just refuse to sleep in it.
I did have luck with a shade i put over but sometimes she’d cry loads and so I’d take it off because I don’t leave her to cry!
Sorry I can’t be more help!
