With a baby that age, I wouldn't even try to put them in a crib. I have always had my children sleep in a bassinet which is much smaller, closer to me. Also there is no problem with letting your infant sleep in a swing, or glider if it helps (I have even asked my pediatrician about this) since babies tend not to develop bad sleeping habits until about 5 or 6 months of age. You can also try getting your infant to sleep elsewhere and then transferring them to the crib. To this day my 9 month old twins have a hard time falling asleep in their cribs, so I put them to sleep in their gliders and transffer them to the cribs where they sleep through the night.

My daughter is 9 weeks old and she won't sleep in her crib either, or her bassinet.She will only sleep in her swing or with me.Ive tried everything by putting my t-shirt in the crib and waiting until she falls asleep then putting her in, but she always wakes up after about 20mins.What else can i do?

We were lucky and our son slept in a crib almost immediately after the hospital stay. And all the way through the night. Unfortunately, he is now in a phase of not going to sleep right away and thinking it is funny.

I have a 10 week old, she started out sleeping in our room in a bassinet. I have been trying to transition her to her crib for the last two weeks. I have started with nap time, no matter what every time I set her in her crib she wakes up. She will fall asleep in her bassinet, swing or bouncer but not in her crib. I bought a sleep wedge and a different kind of sleep wedge and it doesnt seem to help. Any suggestions, I was hoping to have her in her crib before I return to work in 2 wks. Let me know! Thanks!

My son is 4 months now and won't sleep in his crib either.It's very frustrating because he will sleep fine in my arms or with me. I feel guilty sleeping with him but it seems to be the only way I'll get a good chunk of sleep. I am scared that he will be like this for a long time and I won't be able to put him in his own room. Though, sometimes if I am lucky he'll sleep in his rocking chair. But that's rare. I just got a bassinet today but I dont know if it is going to work.. here's hoping.

I have a 3 month old that will only take 30 to 45 minute naps in her crib during the day....but that is usually after about 30 minutes of me going back in there to sooth her every five or so minutes. She sleeps fine in her swing at night (usually about 6 hours or so) but this is only if she is swaddled. She is getting to big to stay in her swaddle and wakes up every time she gets free. I know its time for her to transition to her crib but HOW?????? She has this banshee scream that rips my heart out every time I lay her in there. How do I get her to sleep in her crib all night if I can’t get her down for longer than 30-45 minutes during the day?banchy
