Try setting him on his side, and setting a pillow snugly behind him. Also, you

can roll up a blanket too, and put in in between his legs for more comfort on

his hip/knee area. This is what I do with my daughter.

I do put him in a swing to nap during the day. It's just at night

when he's in the bassinett - that's the problem. When I prop his

legs so that he can sleep on his side, he gets mad/uncomfortable and

starts crying. But I'll keep on trying that. Maybe he'll get used to

it. I would place him on his tummy too, but he doesn't like that.

Yes, I'll keep trying to prop him. Hopefully he'll get used to it

soon.
