Newborn Sleeping Issue

Kailyn • Navy wife + mom of 2

My son will be a month old Sunday and his bed is directly beside mine, eye level. When he is in it we’re maybe 10 inches apart. But he hates it. The only place he will sleep is in bed with me and that scares the shit out of me.

In his bed he might sleep 20 minutes in between screaming but as soon as I put him in bed with me he passed out for 2-3 hours. That’s the only place he sleeps like that and I don’t know how to stop that. I don’t feel comfortable with him in my bed and I don’t want to start a habit we can’t break.

Anyone go through this and have any tips to help a newborn sleep in their own beds?
