Incline

My LO has been congested. The past 3 nights he slept in his swing but I don't want him to get used to that ah night. He sleeps in a bassinet at night. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to make an incline in his bassinet.! I tried folding a firm pillow under the head but he slides down. Any help would be great!

We use a couple of towels rolled up under the mattress.  They're less slippery than pillows and the mattress has stayed put.  Has been working for us from week 2.

Use the Boppy with a blanket over it so LO can't fall in.

My LO will ONLY sleep in a swing or on me. She will NOT sleep flat or in an open space at all.

I've also heard that putting baby in a carseat to sleep when they are sick works.

The second week of her life, we were putting a rolled up towel under DD's mattress in the bassinet.  Just for a slight incline.  One day she was taking a nap and able to roll on her side - so we decided not to mess with that anymore.  Now I just keep her upright after she eats for a little and that usually does the trick - combined with keeping her upright to eat...

I rolled up a towel and put it under the wheels of the whole bassinet.
