Carrier sleep vs bassinet at 6 weeks
My husband and I are having a debate about our 6 week olds sleep.
Up until now he's been a good sleeper, 50% in the cot, 50% in the baby carrier on me (we go for walks etc and he sleeps well). Today we focused on getting him to sleep in the cot because my husband and I were home on a Sunday together and our other older kids were out and we had the time. Consequently baby missed a couple of sleep windows, got overtired and then we just could not get him to sleep for 6 hours or so until 8pm.
Our argument is this: I believe it's ok for him to sleep in the baby carrier here and there if he's struggling to go down in the cot. I feel it's more important for him to get whatever sleep he can get and not get overtired.
My husband thinks we need to be working really hard on only getting him to sleep in the bassinet so he learns a good consistent routine and habit in sleeping in the cot. But I think this leads to more frustration and exhaustion in everyone and at 6 weeks we shouldn't be sweating this yet.
What does everyone else understand about this?
