Just had to share... Crib success

So I think after multiple attempts at different approaches, to transition LO to her crib rather than the swing for her nap or even at night, I think we finally did it!!!  I took her into her crib on Friday and sat her up and let her play with some toys for a few, so it wasn't such a scary place, then she fussed, we read a book, nursed, then was still hungry (I have never been able to produce enough bm for her), so she got her bottle, and I fed it to her in bed, as she drifted off.  Took the toys out, and just watched her sleep!  My mom is watching her now, and had luck with the same concept!  I know we will transition out of the bottle part, but WOOHOO!!! She is asleep in her crib!!!  She slept for 5 1/2 hours Friday night before she woke up, 3+ hours Saturday night, and none last night for other reasons.  After she wakes up she is very upset, so she still bed shares with me after she wakes up.  But she is finally making the transition, we just wanted something that was the least traumatic for both of us, and this is it!!! YAAAY!  Just had to share

  • Congrats!! It's so nice when its a smooth transition. We just made the switch for naps from arms to swing to crib. It's working so well for her. Now that she's bigger I think she's more comfortable in the crib.
