    Hi Heaven. Its awful to hear your baby cry I know.

    When you're trying to find a way to soothe her in the bassinet, maybe try and get as close as possible, so hold her hands and press your cheek to hers, and then rock the whole bassinet as you hold her, so she is nice and close and has some motion (like the HAB). If that works, try and do that for a few days for her to get used to...so basically rock her to sleep.

    Then on a weekend (maybe next weekend?) get DH to come into the room with you and be there as you try and get her to self settle.
