I am up all night every night because my 3 week old will not sleep on his back. He likes to sleep in my arms or on my chest. I am a very light sleeper and can't get any sleep. He will be sound asleep until I lay him down and then he wakes up. I have tried letting him sleep in his bouncer and this works but only for a limited time. help!

have you tried a sleep wedge (they let babies sleep on their sides with out rollng to their belly) that worked with my daughter otherwise enlist a trusted family member or friend for help you so ou can get some rest if you have a swing you could try that he might like the movement of it

I had this problem with my first son and I thought I would loose my mind. Here's what we did. We bought a special monitor that detected babies movement (breathing) and alarmed if it did not detect movement in a certain amount of time. This gave us some piece of mind to let him sleep on his stomach. He started sleeping instantly. Good Luck.

we had the same problem too, but once I put my son on his sides ( with the help of positioner so he would not roll on stomach) he was fine sleeping in ba__sinet. You can also try car seat sleeping or swing if everything else fails.

my baby was the same exact way. He wouldnt sleep for longer than maybe a half hour at a time. So for a while when we put him on a pillow on the couch he would sleep and although he couldnt roll over i just didnt liek doing it. So and i know its not the best thing to do but he started sleeping on his tummy, he started sleeping for 4 hours at a time. I agree with sonya getting a monitor is the safest thing to do, i never though of it til now but my son is now six weeks old and is sleeping 8 hours at a time. Hope this helps:)

We bought an amby bed for our secind who who had the same problem. She slept all night the first night we used it( she was 4 weeks old) Our third one used it day one and slept all night when he was 5 days old.

My 2 month old is the same way she likes to be rocked to sleep and you think she is in a good deep sleep but as soon as we would lay her in her ba__sinet she would wake up. We finally tried the car seat thing we swaddle her and than rock her for a bit and put her in the cqar seat and she sleeps the whole night. We also put a blanket in the bottom so the buckle dosen't bother her. Soon were going to start her in her crib and hope it goes well.
