Nowhere for my baby to sleep?

Some of you might recognise me from previous posts with the trouble with my ex-boyfriend and us still living together. Well now I have had to panic and leave to be at my dad's after my ex grabbed me and pinned me to the bed with baby there.
He wouldn't let me take the cot so I have next to nothing. I'm not sure what to put baby to sleep on? I have his pram. I also have his changing mat so I was thinking of putting blankets on it and putting it on the bed?
But I don't know whats the safest thing to do? Any advice? He's very little and was born 2 months premature so I want the safest.

When we were really young and poor we had a big armchair pulled up to our bed and Ds was small enough to sleep on the big cushion seat. He was protected from falling by the chair arms and back and it was really easy sleeping next to him for night feeds.

There are charities that will help, contact your local midwife service or children's centre in the morning and ask. I've seen at both boxes that are suitable for sleeping and filled with other essentials ready to be given out.

Hope you and baby are ok and that you had an ok nights sleep and you’ve sorted a basket/cot or something. Let us know if you need anything x x

Do speak with your health visitor or doctors or even the hospital ward where you gave birth as there are local charities, like food banks, who provide essentials in hardship and crisis situations.
