Baby is seven weeks old and has been co-sleeping with me as she won't be put down and hates being on her back. She either sleeps on my chest or on her side next to me with me cuddling her. Any loss of physical contact and she tends to wake within a few minutes and get distressed.
Last night I tried sneaking her into the Moses basket. Tried sneaking her into it four times (when deeply asleep) and she woke instantly each time. My worn t-shirt under her made no difference. Even tried warming it up with hot water bottle first so she felt warmth under her but it just didn't work, no matter how slowly I eased her in. Not sure how to approach this next. Any ideas? Is it too early for her maybe? I'd love my husband to come back from the spare room!
