any snuggle nest users?

It's nearly midnight and I am on my 4th attempt to get baby girl tucked into her snuggle nest. This last time I tried putting her in her woombie first, nursing then transfer but no luck. Any tips?

Hope you had some luck with your LO mama! Are you swaddling her? We loved our snuggle nest and used it for a way long time. We had really good luck nursing dd (I sat up, used the Brest Friend pillow meanwhile dh got her swaddle blanket ready), tucking her into the swaddle blanket and then we'd keep a hand on her or stroke her while she fell asleep. Often, we had to bounce or jiggle her back to sleep in those early days. Looks like your babe is really new. Have you watched the Happiest Baby on the Block dvd? It was a lifesaver for us. Our babe loved the swaddle, the side position and being jiggled or bounced for a bit.

We wound up snuggling next to the snuggle nest last night we watched happiest baby at our parenting class with our first. It really was magic but I can't seem to get the jiggling right for her. I may have to try adding a paci, but she'd rather nurse!
