Sleeping places
Does anyone else's baby sleep better in their bed then the bassinet or crib? I swear my 8 week baby girl instantly falls asleep and even stays sleeping longer when shes in my bed then her own.

Mine is 7 weeks and same. She sleeps in her bassinet but not as soundly or as long as when she’s in the bed next to me.
Same. My son is 3 months old and doesn’t sleep in his bassinet at all 😭 he never did
My baby is 6 weeks and he sleeps better and through the night in the bed but in his cot he moves and wakes up a lot, it’s comfort feeling they feel close when your near and that’s why they prefer the bed next to you then the cot/bassinet
Same here! I also sleep better when he’s in the crib I’m a deep sleeper and worry I won’t hear him

Tilting the Next to Me
Does anyone have any advice? My midwife recommended tilting our next to me slightly to help with my baby’s mucous issue however the health visitor really advised against it - but annoyingly tilting it worked? Baby is 3 weeks old and refusing to lie on his back flat as he just wakes up straight away 🥴🫠

When does it get better
This is so hard. Witching hour is more like ‘5 hours’ and sometimes is just off and on all day. It’s so stressful and I feel so helpless some days. She screams and it goes right through me. I’m lucky that it’s not crying non stop like colic, it’s off and on, but it’s still horrendous. We’re at at 10 weeks, does it ever change???

Naps
So far I've had a relatively easy time as a first time mam, but at 11 weeks my little girl has started having predictable 2hr cycles of maybe a 10-15mins of waking happy, playful, then nappy, feed, followed by screaming and crying until she's back to sleep. It seems like she just wants to be asleep all the time. But it takes a combination of darkness, quiet, white noise or boob to be able to get her off. My whole days seem to be fighting her to help her sleep. Is this normal and how long does this phase usually last? 🙈

Is it bad that my son is not the centre of my universe
We are 6 weeks in with my little boy. I adore him, he brings a smile face whenever I look at him.
However I do not think he is the centre of my universe.
I am a planet with multiple suns and my son is one of them perhaps one of the bigger ones but he is not the only sun in my life.
Is this unusual to say and feel ?
