I'm going back to work soon...

I'm going back to work soon...

On the 23rd. Caiden at this point has always slept in his bouncer. But now, he doesn't sleep good at all in that anymore. He's always twisting, stretching, crying, etc. He doesn't seem as comfortable in it anymore. So my problem is that I have no where for him to sleep? He doesn't like the bassinet, the crib, and now the bouncer. I can't hold him all night. I don't know what to do? He's being so fussy. He'll only lay in his crib for a little while before he starts crying. Sometimes not even that. I need to get him to sleep in something? How can I do that, without making my son scream all night? He just doesn't seem to like anything right now.

Nicolas was the same way.

What we did was put him in the bassinet, and every time he fussed, we would go in, rub his belly, give him his pacifier, and if that didn't work and he started crying, we would pick him up and calm him down. After he was calm, he would go right back in the bassinet. After 3 nights he went to sleep in the bassinet without a peep.

Good luck!

It's worth a shot! Should I try it in the crib or the bassinet part of the pack n play? The bassinet is next to my bed, and the crib is in his room.

Do it wherever you feel comfortable. We wanted him in our room at that time, so we put him in the bassinet.
