Question of other bed sharers

LO has been bed sharing with me since she out grew her bassinet. DH moved into the spare room because her night wakings make him too tired so it has just been me and LO for about 6 months now.

she does all her naps and night in the big bed and has only slept in her crib a couple of times. There hasn't been a problem so far because our apartment is all one floor and I am only ever 10 steps away.

At the new house her room will be upstairs so I will be further away and it won't be safe to leave her on the big bed and she will need to nap in her crib.

i want to change it so she naps in her crib and starts the night in her crib and then bed share when I go to bed. 

She is an incredibly light sleep and it is very hard to move her once she is asleep.  Any suggestions on how to transition her to nap in her crib? I don't mind nursing her to sleep each time. I just need the end result to be her sleeping in her crib.

 Is the any chance that if it time the change to start at the new house with a new routine she would just accept it?

  • Have you tried a white noise machine. We started using one for our older girl and it totally changed our life. She was a super light sleeper also. We also had great success with her sleeping in her pnp whenever we were in a new location. Who knows maybe a

  • I nurse DD to sleep at night and sometimes during her naps (on the weekends when I'm home). I start off nursing her in my arms. Once she falls asleep, and is asleep for about 10 minutes I put her in her crib or PNP. At night, she ends up in bed with me
