Bedtimes with newborn
Hi!
I’m a first time mum and really struggling with bed times with my baby girl. She’s only 17 days old. At nights she doesn’t like being in her next to me crib; I think she feels a bit lost in it and also doesn’t like a blanket. We have been putting her down in her Moses basket which has been working better but when waking up for her early hours feed around 3/4am I can’t seem to get her back down in the Moses basket and having to put her in with me which isn’t ideal. I feel so much mum guilt as she will be used to being warm and toasty in my tummy!
Please can anyone give advice on how they sleep their babies; do you use blankets, sleep bags? I’ve seen people use the sleep pod pillows but these aren’t recommended. Any advice will be very much appreciated as I feel awful thinking she must feel so cold and lost in her crib/moses.

My first was the same and we ended up co sleeping safely but my second is very happy to go down in the najell sleep carrier (approved for over night sleep) much cosier and we have it in her crib and then also in the pram bassient so it’s a consistent sleep space x
