Won’t sleep in his next to me crib

My 6 month old still wakes every 1-2 hours at night . Doesn’t matter if she’s in her crib or beside me . It’s developmentally normal for night wakings especially this young for comfort or feeding and also closeness . Mine sleeps in the car/buggy due to the constant movement . With age I’ve managed to give her one crib nap a day but it took some work . I’d say keep working on the next to me crib and try out different things like holding him for 20-30 mins before transferring or laying him down drowsy but awake . Or also a hot water bottle on the mattress of his crib and take it away before laying him down . Let him play in the crib with toys and do tummy time there so he learns it’s a safe space

My 6 week old was the same, loves to sleep in the buggy or on one of us, but not in the next to me, we found that using a rockit helps so much, we attach it to the bed. We also use one of my t-shirts, white noise and heating up the mattress with a hot water bottle before we put her down, she usually does stretches of 3/4/5 hours overnight now, but it’s the rockit that helps the most, best purchase we’ve made!

I heard that they can smell you and want to be close to you. To try and move the bassinet or crib by dad’s side instead of yours and that will help get a longer stretch. If it’s recent behavior, might be a sleep regression. The app “wonder weeks” really helped me during postpartum

My little one HATED his next to me but would sleep in a bassinet because it was much smaller and I guess felt more snug. We used to put the bassinet inside the next to me until he outgrew it, but then was used to the next to me. I’m not sure if you have an option to try something smaller, but it might be that

He might like the buggy and car seat due to the motion that’s happening at the time not just because it’s the buggy, but you could always try. I second the rockit might help you.
