As I expressed in some of my other comments in threads that I wanted to get a sleep thread going. How do you get you LO to sleep? Tricks? Recommendations? Certain things to avoid? Any suggestions are recommended.
My problem is that my little girl goes down in the basinett for about 20 mins and then wakes up crying. I try to feed again, console her and put her back. She wants to sleep on me for the most part. She has had a couple good nights, but I find now that she now during the day won't even go in her swing and wants to be warm on mommy.
Things I've tried:
swaddling- worked the first couple of nights but she seems like a smart cookie.
Dark rooms during night, blinds all open during the day
white noise and a night light - she seems to like this but alone this doesn't soothe her
getting her into a deep sleep first and then putting her down.
Putting her sleep sack(halo swaddle sleep
sack) under the covers to get warm before putting on
I usually feed one side, change and then feed the other side. If she goes to the bathroom again, I only change again if she poops.
I understand that at this young (2 weeks old) they don't really have any established schedule or training per say. But I am so not prepared for cosleeping and do not feel comfortable as I toss and turn.
Looking forward to more responses

I did see in the other thread that I should put in a Tshirt that I wore that day so it smells like me. I am also going to try the water bottle in the basinett first tonight as well as put her special sleep sack in my shirt today so it smells like me.
I just get so anxious for night now and dread anytime past 9pm knowing it's going to awful.

is she taking a pacifier at all?

White noise didn't work so well for us, but he does like music. I turn Spotify on my phone with a sleep timer and set it next to him.

I legitimately just roll my head to face away and baby wakes up. Ugh. Hah. They just want the only thing they've know for the past 9mo/-their mama. No matter what you decide for sleep-just make sure you take some steps to ensure it's safe! Lots of ppl side eye bedsharing, but falling asleep exhausted on a couch or rocking chair can be more dangerous. So if you're desperate don't feel shame in putting baby in bed with you. I was once saying "never will I ever" and look at me with baby two now. Hah. just do your research and make sure it's a safe setup that you feel comfortable with!

you guys may have me sold on the rock and play! It seems pretty awesome. I do however have a swing and a lamb bouncer that vibrates. Not sure how much DH will want another contraption in the house lol. She slept slightly better last night. Went down around 9 slept till 12:17 and then I fed and she went back down around 1 slept till 2 and then we had a stretch of just not wanting to go back down till 5 and then from 5-7:22 she was in the basinett. It's a small victory that I am going to take for now. I had the sleep sack in my shirt all day lol so hopefully that helped. I also put a hot water bottle in the basinet first and then removed it before I put her down. She liked that. We also slightly tilted the basinett up so help with her little gassy self. I'm going to try again tonight and hope it continues to go well. As for another funny question, she is one of the loudest sleepers I have ever heard. Grunts, squeals, squeaks etc. Strains like she needs to poo. Cries then go back to sleep. Anyone else have this with their little ones?
also @kjd291b that looks amazing! I am still just such a nervous nelly! I guess everyone is different

she had her worst night of sleep yet last night. I blame the impending cluster feeding thing happening today. She was soooo mad all night. I am exhausted for the first time today.

Re-schedule. I feel ya! I LOVE a good schedule. Trust me/the 4:30-5:30(ISH) poop is about the only scheduled thing I have going for me ;p hah. And schedules will happen sooner or later - most kids thrive on them--BUT warning: they have a talent at changing their schedule up on you just as soon as you get settled into a routine.
We used to be able to count on LO to fall sound asleep at the boob and could put him down right away. Now he'll seem to fall asleep but wake right up as soon as I take him off.
Night time seems to be better than day time. I am waking him up to nurse every three hours and DH has been awesome at getting up and putting the baby back down after he eats, but during the day I cannot get this kid to sleep. He usually has one good nap in the morning but is hardly getting any sleep during the day. He has been getting fussy, which I think is because he is getting overtired no matter how closely I watch for tired cues or how hard I try to get him to sleep. Is this a phase or am I just doomed to have a non-sleeping baby?

good news is DS became a champions sleeper at nine months and still is (knock on all the wood) so ladies there is a light at the end of the tunnel. That's what I keep telling myself atleast. Let's pray for short tunnels lol
Don't compare. You do what you need to do.
Things that I have even consistent with: I swaddle for naps and night. White noise at night with an air filter turned to high. Dimmed lights and minimal talking during nighttime feeds. Rule of thumb: wake time shouldbe 15 minutes/how many weeks they are. So, is nursing every 3 hours.. he takes 30 minutes to eat.. stays awake for around 45 minutes and then naps until next feed.
Also.. I moved him to his room across the hall over the weekend. My husband and I weren't getting any sleep from all of his grunts. I still hear them but it has helped my husband who has to get up at 5:15 for work to actually sleep. My pediatrician (who is also my father in law.. so obvi has the baby's best interest) said the relocation is fine.
I hope this helps someone. I'm still sleep deprived since nighttime just never seems like enough and running after a toddler during the day means not much time for napping , but fingers crossed the nighttime stretches start going longer over here...
