My dd now 6.5 weeks old still refuses to sleep anywhere except "on" one of us. Attempts to acclimatise her gradually to her basket (in a baby whisperer sort of way) result eventually in a v upset baby who then won't settle anywhere, gets overtired, even harder to settle etc. V discoraging and upsetting. Any thoughts?
Secondly I find my sling a lifesaver as she sleeps there which prevents overtiredness, gives us peace etc. But is it damaging for her to spend too long there? It's quite a structured one that holds her upright and facing in. Currently she might spend 5 or 6 hours there in a 24 hour period. Which sounds like a lot now I type it out.
Thanks
