My 8 month old son has always been pretty good about sleeping but about 3 weeks ago he was sick and ever since then he refuses to sleep in his crib. I can’t put him in there before he goes to sleep because he will cry, and if he does fall asleep and I put him in there, he wakes up crying :( Please help. This is getting really hard!
I will NOT let him cry it out. I have tried his mobile and soothing sounds.

Is it safe for a baby to sleep in a portable crib/bassinet for long periods of time?

My wife and I are moving across the country less than two months after we have our first child. We are considering buying a portable crib or a bassinet instead of a regular crib for the first couple of weeks.

When we went to look at portable cribs, the mattress seemed pretty flimsy compared to the regular cribs. Would it be safe for a newborn to sleep in a portable crib for that long? Should be try to find something with a firmer mattress –like a bassinet or a regular crib?

There was a lot of thing what this mom shouldn’t do with that baby.
Grandma tried a lot of ways to change it. She was kindly talking to that mom, she was keeping eye and tried to prevent a lot of things. For example 2 weeks baby shouldn’t sleep on the stomach or baby shouldn’t be tightly enveloped in a flannel diaper too long and so go on.
How to do this all:
to avoid conflicts and do not hurt feelings of young mom and to help baby?
