2Mo Old Won't Sleep Alone

I have a 2 mo old that will not sleep in his bassinett, I can put him in there asleep and he will wake himself up and fuss until I put him in my bed with me. I understand that it is good for babies to sleep with the mother and have that closeness with them, but I am exhausted because I cannot sleep that well with him in my bed because I am terrified of smothering him or haveing him fall out of the bed.
