Best bed for baby

Hi, I hope to get some advice...

My little girl is 6 days old and is struggling to go back to sleep at night in her moses basket. She sleeps so soundly during the day in it, but when nighttime comes it's a whole new story. I was just wondering if it would be beneficial to change upstares basket for a next to me style crib? Would it make it easier for us all to get back to sleep? Thoughts/advice very welcome xx

At that age it's unlikely to help. Most newborns struggle to sleep well at night, give it a few months and if no improvement look at changing to a different bed.

Our little girl slept really well during the day and terrible at night but now 3mth and been sleeping through every night in her cotbed for several weeks.

Just standard baby behaviour I'm afraid. It
gets a bit better once they learn day from night.

Thanks you for your replies. I suppose I'm just clutching at straws here, she's my third baby and I've never had it so difficult ha. I know it's not forever but it's just so tiring at the moment. I'll get there. Thanks again xx

@SamanthaM1625 I know how you feel, it will get better. Try to nap during the day if you can.
I was exhausted in the early weeks too, 6th baby for us but easier than when we had twins last time.

@Chely it's just difficult with both my boys being school aged and having to clock watch all the time. I will try with those power naps inbetween though. 6th baby my hats off to you lol I couldn't imagine having twins either you need a medal 🏅😊❤️ x
