Baby won’t sleep in bassinet

mine did the same thing but unfortunately we never recovered 😕 she's 18 months now and still sleeps in our bed

I know it's hard, but the only way to get them used to it is to keep doing it I'm afraid! I refused to have a co sleeping baby, so I've persevered with my now 11 month old (I have 2 other kids aswell) . Don't get me wrong, she's been through spells of being in our bed when she's poorly or particularly unsettled, but generally she's in her own bed

Idk if this will help but I moved both my kids into their own rooms into regular cribs at 3 months because of this and the difference was life changing. Those bassinets don't seem to have a comfortable mattress for some babies and some are really sensitive to noise.

4 months. My daughter has a crib/bassinet shes never used. She doesn’t like it all… so here we are almost 5 months and still in bed with us! I love the cuddles! If she slept thru the night it would be better 😍

Love to dream sleep suits massively help

My baby was the same way-hated the bassinet and would sleep in our bed but we were all really uncomfortable with it. We ended up putting her straight in her crib. We first tried naps and once she was used to it we put her in there for the beginning of the night for as long as we could. She’s almost 3 months and still ends up in my bed early morning but now she likes her crib and is sleeping so much better. I think they get used to how comfy our beds are and then the bassinet is too hard.

My LO is almost 3 mo too and he refuses to sleep in his bassinet out of the blue. I’m so against co sleeping personally but I’ve been forced into it for both our sake. He sleeps like a log next to me and I can usually get 4-5 hours of sleep at a time. He only stays asleep in his bassinet for like 5 minutes and wakes up. I’m not someone who tosses and turns in my sleep , I wake up in the same position I fall asleep, so it brings me a little more peace of mind having him sleep in my bed.

So I am working on it with my 22 month old. I only want him to sleep the first half of the night (while I am still up) in his cradle, after that I dont mind him being in bed with me. When he was 3 months he always fell asleep breast feeding on a pillow in my lap and we transferred him to his cradle when asleep. Usually worked. If he woke up we did the same. Now he knows what we are doing. I simply put him in his cradle and stand there with him so he can see me, every now and again rubbing his back so he knows hes not alone until he falls asleep. Does he cry? Yes. But every time its a shorter duration. Hes not alone, hes not ignored, hes just upset he cant fall asleep snuggling. Its been becomming less and less time to get him to fall asleep.

I had this issue and my baby is 13 months and still in bed with us. One thing I’m going to do with my next kid is just keep going with the bassinet no matter how long it takes 🫠no judgement either way like I said we have a cosleeper too!

My baby is eight weeks and has not slept one night in the bassinet. I don’t mind Co sleeping because I breast-feed, but I wish he would at least take naps in the bassinet.

Mine HATED the bassinet. Then we moved to a pack n play in our room and he still hated it. Moved to his crib in the nursery at 3 month and he’s been sleeping through the night ever since. I personally just didn’t want co sleep so I never introduced it but me and my husband took shifts to stay up with him when he refused to be in the bassinet
