Bassinet with incline?

Question

My week old baby HATES sleeping flat on her back. We think she may have some issue with reflux. Any good, safe bassinets out there with a bit of incline? We have a rock and play that she loves and sleeps so well in for supervised naps but ive been reading they arent safe for overnight😩.

Answer

They sell mattress wedges that are firm and incline them slightly

Answer

used a rock n play until he could roll over. all night. nicu reccomend because of reflux. worked like a charm

Answer

We our daughter was sick we just put a towel folded up under her mattress to create an incline...

Answer

My daughter wouldn’t sleep unless she was on her belly so we let her do that. We also had the owlet sock though so we knew she was safe

Answer

Good for you for listening to the advice of preofessionals. Studies have come out that the rock n play is not safe for overnight. Our grandparents thought smoking while pregnant kept mom relaxed.... now we have research that proves how awful it is......  I would ask your pediatrician what is recommended for redlux. Also ask if changing your diet(if breastfed), or her formula may help. Reflux can be painful and hard for parents.

Answer

We used the rock n play all night long as well. I have 4 kids and only 1 of the 4 slept on their back flat successfully. The other 3 slept in the rock n play until they could roll or sit up. I took my rock n plays to the hospital with me 3 times as well. This last time, a year and a half ago was the only time the nurses said anything about it not being “safe”. Literally all previous times I was told it was a smart idea. I also got yelled at for holding baby while I slept sitting up... I’m a very light sleeper, I repeatedly had to say this is my 4th child, I have 3 others I’ve kept alive stop telling me what to do.

Answer

I used to put a rolled up towel or two under the mattress and that worked perfectly

Answer

My daughter didn't have issues with reflux, but some nights she just slept better in the rock and play and was perfectly fine. I've been told folding a towel and putting it under the bassinet mattress to make it slope works well for folks.

Answer

Both my girls had acid reflux with my oldest having a severe case and they slept just fine flat on their backs. I read that babies who sleep on an incline had very little to no positive affect on their reflux. I stick to a firm, flat surface. It’s the safest.

Answer

I also recommend the rock n play.  My son loved his and now sleeps in his regular bed without any issues (he is now 14 months).
