I used a bassinette next to our bed when we first brought Madeleine home from hospital. Then after a few weeks she didn't like the bassinette anymore and we tried to put her down in her cot. She doesn't like that either. She has been co-sleeping with us since then and she's now 9 weeks old. Through the day, she'll only sleep in her bouncer.

Whatever works I say! She sleeps from 9pm-6am with us so that works wonders, no more night feeding. She loves sleeping with Mummy, I love her beside me. We initially got worried that she'll never go into her own cot/bed but there are people that say it's hard to put them in their own bed after co-sleeping and some say it was easy. I guess it depends on the child so we'll see. But for now, it works and she is very happy so that's all that matters.

Good luck!
