my bf's parent are the only ones that can get him 2 sleep at night
Maybe you should start doing what they do, and being the mother? You can't rely on his parents to get him to sleep every night.

I slept with my son in my bed until he was 5 months old. He is fine but I never put any pillows near him.

It's a choice you'll have to make on your own.
Cosleeping creates the risk of the baby falling, being rolled on or smothering in pillows and blankets. Bassinet or crib sleeping creates the risk of SIDS. Which one bothers you more?

It's preferable for them to sleep on a firm mattress with no blankets or pillows*.
I still co-sleep with my daughter. We started when she was about 4 weeks old. I love it.

I co-sleep with my 9 month old, Some nights she sleeps in the crib, others with me. I think it's perfectly fine, AS LONG AS YOUR SMART ABOUT IT. You certainly shouldn't put them on a pillow, you mattress/crib mattress is fine enough. Though when I was breast-feeding I usually just used a normal pillow and if she fell asleep I would just put her and the pillow on the floor while I tidied up or ate which I think is perfectly alright as long as they are supervised.. I suggest you do some reading about the pros and cons of co-sleeping and sleeping on there own.

Hun, Things will be VERY hard right now. He won't sleep much. And you'll get grumpy and angry and whatnot. But you have to protect him and keep him safe. Teach him to sleep in his bassinet.
