Anyone else's baby really not like sleeping in the pack n play?

DD seems to hate sleeping in the pack n play. She will sleep great on my bed...bad I know....so I wonder if she thinks the pack n play mattress is too. I wonder if she'd like sleeping in her crib better since the mattress is just a little less firm. I just hate the thought of having to go upstairs every hour during the night since her room is upstairs and our room is on the main floor. She also fights against her swaddle when she wakes up until she starts crying- not sure if we should give it up. Any advice? 3 weeks of no sleep is wearing on me!

Our LO HATED the PNP for the first few weeks. We actually spent the first 2 weeks we were home taking turns sleeping on our recliner with him until we got a rock n play which he loved. Then all of sudden last week he started wanting to lay flat on his back to sleep so we tried the PNP again and that's where he's been for almost 5 straight nights. So my advice is just to do whatever you have to so that everyone can sleep for now and the rest will work itself out in time.
