Depressed parents

Had LO who's at 16 days old. We have a confinment nanny now but at night we will bring over our LO to our master bedroom to co sleep (but different bed) with us. However, LO just doesn't want to sleep at night when with us and always fuss and cry even after feeding burping changing diaper and carrying. Until our nanny comes over to carry him then he stopped crying immediately. Both hubby and I were upset and losing confidence of taking care of our LO after our nanny leaves. Any advice....

I would suggest to persist! Try and try again so that you learn your child’s patterns in behaviour and preference. There is a learning curve, so best to learn while nanny is still here. Observe how she soothes him. Don’t worry, you’ll get the hang of it eventually!
