Getting newborn to sleep in bassinet

Erin

I'm having some trouble getting my newborn to sleep in her bassinet.

I usually feed her before she falls asleep. When she unlatches and she's in my arms, she stays sleeping but the minute I lay her down in her bassinet she gets all fidgety (she sleeps in a swaddle wrap thing) until she wakes herself back up.

How can I get her to fall asleep and stay sleeping at least for a few hours?
