My baby is almost 5 weeks old and I’m having a lot of trouble with her sleeping. She will sleep fine if she’s laying on me or my husband, if she’s in her swing seat (even though we don’t turn the swing on), or in her car seat. She will NOT sleep in the bassinet. I have to get her fully in a deep asleep for at least 20 minutes before I put her in the bassinet and most times she will pop her eyes open and be wide awake as soon as I put her down. She won’t even immediately cry, she will slowly build up to a full cry over the course of 15 mins. She even did this in the bassinet attachment of the stroller while we were on a walk! I need help or advice because it’s the only place I can put her down to safely sleep if I also want to try to sleep (which I desperately need to do).
