Getting baby to sleep in moses basket

Literally same!!! My daughter has not slept on her back. She only sleeps on us and we have to take turns being up all night

Do u have a playpen maybe try that some babies just don’t like bassinets much my son liked basinet but didn’t like the playpen he would only like it to play. I’d try a playpen or even one of those soft on the bed sleepers that’s safe for them

I know it sounds silly but is baby actually asleep before you try to transfer? You can feel them almost get heavier in your arms when they’ve drifted off.
Are you using white noise? Are you rocking the crib or patting baby’s bum when they go down? Continued motion is very helpful for babies to sleep

My first couldn't lie flat day or night due to reflux so keep an eye out for that but babies generally want to be held early days. It's tough so sending strength xxx

Have you tried taking the mattress out of the moses basket and getting them to try and sleep/nap on that first?

Might get them used to it and then whilst they're asleep but them in the moses?

My little hasn't had much trouble sleeping in the makes, but hated waking up on him own and screams bloody murder. But as soon as he starts stirring me or my partner are close so he knows he's somewhere safe x

Following as we have the exact same with our little one he is only 2 days old so know it will take some getting used to for him but wanted to see if anyone has any tips that may help us x

At night time I have found making sure the room is dark, only using the red light for nappy changes etc., having white noise playing, using a swaddle bag and putting my husbands tshirt in her moses basket so she has a familiar scent helps. I always put her bum down first and make sure I’m tapping it and when I put her head down, I either keep my hand her head or on her chest. I stay like that for a little until she settles and then slowly move my hands away. It doesn’t always work but she is getting better at settling and we are managing to get a better sleep at night. During the day I just let her cuddle with us and sometimes she goes down in the Moses basket but doesn’t stay settled for as long. Xx

We found putting a hot water bottle on for a few sections before transfer helped. I think the shock of the temperature change meant that she got unsettled quickly!

We started doing abit of a bedtime routine which helped us. We play calm music whilst I feed him and then when he is milk drunk I put him in his next to me for and put white noise on and we’ve found this now works for us no matter what bed/cot he is in. Even worked in a hotel! Xx

I don’t know whether the routine actually helps him or whether it is a fluke and actually keeps us more calm than him haha xx

Buy a sleepyhead, midwives don’t recommend them but they’re a game changer during the night. You’ve got to remember babies have been used to being inside the womb all scrunched up and then put in this big Moses basket. Hope that helps
