Hi! I would like some advice on gentle sleep training and creating some good habits for my 2 month 1 week old babygirl. I would like her to fall asleep in her bed, can be assisted. I don't want her to fall asleep on the breast. I will share her daily "schedule":

Night sleep from about 8-10pm and lasts 10-12 hours. She will have 1-2 wakeups in-between. The first stretch is about 6-9 hours and then sleeps for a few more hours and an hour after that more. I feed her at 8 pm. She falls asleep while breastfeeding and then I transfer her to her bed which is next to/connected to our bed. The first transfer doesn't usually work. Sometimes it does but sometimes it takes a few tries. Every time she wakes up, I put her back on the boob and she eats for a few more minutes before falling asleep. Sometimes my husband tries rocking her, but she will show hunger cues (licking lips, hands and rooting). Sometimes this process takes up to 2 hours. She is asleep most of this time, but just won't transfer.

Her wake windows are about 1,5 hours. I look at Huckleberry, but also follow her cues if she is tired before the time the app says. For her naps, she usually sleeps in her room in the crib. We use a bouncy ball and now not much else works. She will whine or cry with just walking or standing, she needs to be heavily jumped up and down. She will also often start rooting for the breast if I am putting her down. I feel bad that she might be hungry and give her some milk, but then she will only drink for a few min and fall asleep. She sleeps for about 45 minutes, rarely more. If we do the occasional contact nap, she will sleep much longer.

Please give me some advice on how to gently transition her to be able to fall asleep easier.
