This may seem weird, but sleep with her bassinet sheet one night. Having your smell on it may help ease her in.

It takes time. She has to get comfortable and familiar with it, and recognize it as a safe space. The more you use it the more used to it she will get. Each time she wakes and you go to her, she learns that she is safe in the crib and someone will come if she calls. It's a process.

My baby is not even 4 days old and loves to roll on his left side to sleep.

No matter how many time I correct him back on his back he still rolls over. Should I be concerned? His bassinet isn’t wide enough for him to fully roll. When he side lays he can’t go farther than that.

What wrong with my baby

So I’m calling doctors tomorrow but just wanna check in here see if anyone knows what’s wrong. My daughter is 5 months old and in the past 2 weeks she’s started making these noises like she struggling for breath it doesn’t seem to bother her much and I thought it was bc she was getting excited before as it does happen when she’s exited but it’s started to get random she could be just sat there and it happen anyone know what’s could’ve going on !

I decided to give my fiancé the baby and finally take a nap being that I was on go for almost 24hrs straight! I’ve told him a NUMEROUS amount of times that he has to turn the a/c when he puts her in her bassinet bc the air goes directly over here

I just woke up to my baby crying and literally shivering to the point her lips were starting to turn purple. And he’s SLEEP!! 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

I want to punch him awake so bad. How do I bring it up to him without crashing out??

Should I be scared for whenever I have sex again?

I haven’t had sex since I was 5 months pregnant & my daughter is already 16 months old. I had a second degree tear as well haven’t even used a tampon or put my finger in there as I’m scared it might either hurt, feel weird or be very loose 🤦‍♀️

Pacifier falling out of mouth

My son is about 1 month old. I was wondering if anyone has tips for helping him keep his paci in his mouth whild he sleeps? We generally only give him the pacifier when he sleeps at night, if that makes a difference.
