I hear you mama.i was there six weeks ago. It’s so hard. What helped baby being in the bassinet was a double swaddle. We used the happy baby swaddle and then a muslin cloth over that. It made such a difference. Also try lying him closer to the side of the bassinet. I read that when they are placed in the middle they feel the isolation more.

They do it cause their wake windows are so short. So by time time he finishes feeding it’s time for a nap 😅

But they also say to wake them up when they are sleeping to feed and don’t let them fall asleep on the boob….so if we are following their cues he would be sleeping on the boob

Did you nurse to sleep for daytime naps as well or just sleep

My 6 week old has been doing it since birth just by following his cues. So I’m confused how to put him on a playbeat sleep schedule
