hi,

my son is 3months old and won't like to hold while he feels sleepy and likes to sit in the car seat and want him to rock.when he is awake he wants to sit in the car seat and likes to talk and play with us.during nights he sleeps next to me on the bed only if i put my nipple and goes to sleep if he wakes in 10 min again i need to put the nipple in his mouth.i am so worried how to make him sleep down on his own.is it safe to sleep in the car seat and sit in the car seat all day long.my friends told me that the shape of baby spinalcord will change.PLEEEASE help me.

thanks,

Whatever the reason, pls. stop it right now. Initially you will ahve trouble doing that, he may not sleep well or simply cry but you have to be firm on this to avoid later complications. shuchi replied. Hi,

I think you shlould speak with your Dr about this...the more people you ask an opinion from, the more confused you will get. Your pediatrician is the only one who can give you the best advice...all i can say is...\";TRUST YOUR INSTINCTS\";..if you as a mother know your baby is ok, then he is.

all the best to you

take care

anita replied. NO! it is not healthy att all and you should take him out of that carseat immediately. You are the grown one and your son the baby which you have to take care of. A baby of 3-4 months need to sleep either in his own bed or together with you. I have been sleeping together with all my kids until that period in their life was to an end (around 10-12 months). Regarding that nipple in his mouth take it out and only put it in when breastfeeding. It is you to decide, not your son. Use a pacifier instead if he can not sleep without something to chew on. Regarding sitting in that carseat you risk to make his head deform because he will sit in the same position for many, many hours.
Best luck to you and your son!!
