Nap/sleep tips?

Question

Baby sleeps great at night but ONLY if laying on my chest or in my arms. Will not nap or sleep in bassinet longer than 30min-1hour. But has slept 7hrs on my chest at night.
I’ve tried swaddles and different crib. But she just doesn’t sleep long.
Any tips??

Answer

Check out Dr. Harvey Karp’s 5 S’s on YouTube: swaddle, shushing, sucking, side lying and swaying. It mimics the womb and triggers the baby’s sleep reflex. When I even just do a few of the steps for my baby she’s out like a light in 10 minutes and stays in a deep sleep for 1-3 hours for naps and up to 10.5 hours at night!

Answer

Have you tried a sleep sack? The halo one makes just a huge difference for my baby. I make sure her arms are swaddled in it. 
Some babies just prefer to be held. My second one was like that. She was my only one of four to never sleep in her crib lol

Answer

Do you put her down when she’s in a deep sleep?
