My 2 week old DD has a small crib that we keep at the bedside and one of those Baby Box University boxes.
The first few days after she came home from the hospital, she'd sleep in the crib at night and the box in our living room during the day. She sleeps like an absolute dream all day in the box but when it comes to the crib at nighttime, she's a nightmare! She never settles and either me or DH seem to be constantly up with her or cuddling her in our bed.
After a few nights, I started bringing the box into our bedroom and letting her sleep in there at night. She finally started sleeping for around 3 hours between feeds and only fussed in the morning when she wanted a cuddle.
The problem is, DH doesn't like her sleeping on the floor in a box. He's convinced that something will somehow fall on her and doesn't like not being able to see her. He's moved her back into the crib the past couple of nights and again she's been crying and fussing all night unless she's co-sleeping with me. He says we need to persevere with the crib but I don't see the point. It seems to stress her out too much.
I've been thinking of buying one of the Chicco Next2me co-sleepers but they're expensive if she won't settle in that either. What would you do?
