not sleeping in moses basket

i have a 4 week old and she refuses to sleep in her moses basket everytime i put her in it while she's asleep she'll automatically wake up and scream until she's out of it... if we put her in it while she's starting to fall asleep she'll just start screaming the only way she will sleep is if she's in her pram, or if were holding her or she's layed on our bed.. but me or my oh refuse to share a bed with her for obvious reasons so we are basically awake all day and night holding her. not sure what to do ? :(

ps i may not be able to reply to you because the site is only letting me post on forum and i dont know why :s so please dont think im ignoring you all will try and reply back whenever it lets me again :( xx

  • @JLFx3 do you swaddle her? Might be worth trying that. x

  • The moses basket might have a funny smell, which is why she will not sleep in it or she might not like the feeling of the material. Also you could try swaddling her :) and maybe try a dummy?! x x
