My son will only sleep in my arms

Jordyn

My son is seven months old. I have a bedside bassinet attached to my bed and fully intended for him to use it.

Since he was born, he would never sleep in it. He would fall asleep nursing then when I transferred him, he would wake up immediately crying. This resulted in us unintentionally bed sharing his whole life. I’ve grown to love it but it’s a habit I want to break before he turns one...

Anyways, the issue I’m actually having is with his naps. He WILL NOT nap unless I’m holding him. He falls asleep on the boob and then when transferred, he wakes immediately and won’t go back to sleep unless put back on the boob. I can’t live this way lol. I have a two year old daughter that needs me too and dealing with nap time takes up a huge chunk of my day.

I need advice!
