Please help!! My 4 week old absolutely refuses to sleep in her moses basket.
She will happily fall asleep on my chest but the second I put her down in the basket (no matter how gently!) she is wide awake, crying and will not be soothed back to sleep. I've tried putting her in there drowsy, different blankets, sleep aids, my t-shirt in there etc and nothing seems to work :(
My husband and I are exhausted as he spends the first half of the night sitting with her on his chest and trying to get her to settle in the basket, then by about 2am he's exhausted so I wake up and have her co-sleep with me (except I dont sleep as I'm too scared something will happen to her!)
I feel like I'm in losing my mind from lack of sleep and dont know what else to do. Everyone says to sleep when she sleeps but I cant when husbands at work all day and she will only sleep on me?!?!
Help!!
