When to move baby to crib, I have a 6 week old who hates sleeping in his bassinet should I try switching him to his nursery

Question

Answer

You can do that, or switched the crib to your room?🤷🏻‍♀️ Honestly I’m a FTM and that’s what we did with our rainbow baby since we were told by Doctor that  baby should  sleep in the same room as parents for at least 6 months but it’s best until 1 yr that it’s supposed to reduce the risk for SIDS🤷🏻‍♀️ its gives me peace of mind even tho she’s a loud sleeper I love having her in our room to check on her, but you do what’s best for your family

Answer

Mine has been in his crib in his own room since 4 weeks old. I love having him in there, his changing table and my recliner are in there so its so much easier on me in the middle of the night to not fumble from one end of the house to the other while carrying a baby lol. He seems much more comfortable in his crib too.

Answer

Have you tried the crib for naps or anything? My son basically just hated sleeping anywhere by himself until he was at least 3 months old.

Answer

You can; there's no reason you can't start with the crib, but at 6 weeks old all babies hate being away from you, so if they hate the basket, they will hate the crib too. Its a developmental phase called the 'fourth trimester'. 
As a side note, at least in the UK, its advised to 
room share for the first 6 months to prevent SIDs. My health visitor even said 12 months if possible.

Answer

Sure.  Theres no law that says you ever "have" to use a bassinet.   They're more convenience than needed.

Answer

The crib is totally fine. As long as there’s nothing in it but a firm mattress and a snug fitted sheet. And baby. And I put my sons crib into our bed room. For over a year. I was too afraid of SIDS & that’s the american pediatric associations recommendation to help keep our babies happy and healthy. In the same room with Mom at the least for 6months and preferably one year. This drastically reduces the chances of SIDS.

Answer

I switched my baby over to nursery at a month old and she did just fine. She actually started sleeping better through the night.

Answer

Both my kids wiggled around too much in their bassinets for me to feel comfortable (I knew a family that lost a baby to SIDS so I’m hyper vigilant). I ended up moving both into their cribs at around 4 weeks old. I slept on a bed in my son’s room until he was 6 months due to my obsessiveness in following the SIDS guidelines. I actually slept in my daughter’s room until she was 12 months as she was still waking and my husband has a job where he needs adequate sleep for safety reasons.

Answer

We used the crib from the day we came home from the hospital. Only used a bassinet on the stroller.
