Sleep training

—long post- I’m sorry—

So as I approach my last few weeks with my baby before going back to work I am finding myself extremely overwhelmed. I have been trying here and there to get our baby girl on a sleep schedule during the day (not sleeping in my arms) and it is not going well! She can sleep for hours on me undisturbed by anything but the moment i put her in her crib or down she jumps awake. She is very jumpy on her own which is what I believe causes her to wake. We were swaddling her at night which worked for a while but she is too big(9weeks over 12 pounds) as well as I don’t believe the daycare will swaddle so I didn’t want to form that habit (at least for the daytime). She is also teething already 🤦‍♀️so that may be a big contributor. Last night was one of my worst nights with her waking every 30-60 minutes when she usually sleeps 3-5 hours.

My first question is would you give up the last few weeks cuddling you LO and letting her sleep on you to prepare her for daycare?

If so please give me some tips or tricks on what else I may do. Her belly is full, clean diaper. Tried crib and bassinet both with sound machine. Tried the baby hammock on her crib. Nothing is working.

I knew my little princess was going to give me a run for my money she has been 1000% different from her brother I’m going crazy 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️.

Thank you
