Guest guest Posted January 14, 2006 Report Share Posted January 14, 2006 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.

Guest guest Posted January 14, 2006 Report Share Posted January 14, 2006 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. > > > --------------------------------- > Ok. Here's another problem I am facing. As most of you > know, Marcus is > now in the brace.

Guest guest Posted January 14, 2006 Report Share Posted January 14, 2006 Yes, I'll keep trying to prop him. Hopefully he'll get used to it soon. > > Try setting him on his side, and setting a pillow snugly behind him.
