I'm the one with the sleep issue

I'm lucky LO will sleep anywhere I put her. RnP, PnP, travel bed, with me, without me, with whoever is holding her, etc.

Before I'm back to work I want her to get into her crib, but I just can't do it. We just transitioned to the PnP in our room and it feels too far away (all of 10 feet).

She had been sleeping in the RnP right next to me and now she feels so far. That's why I'm dragging my feet putting her in the crib because it feels like she may as well be in the next state. I've been super clingy to her since I realized maternity leave is almost up. I do get out here and there without her, but when I'm home I'm very greedy with my baby time.

Anyone else get like this and how did you get over it?

    I am the same way. My daughter slept next to me for 6 months, then we moved her crib into our bedroom until she was about 14 months old. I needed her near me. I think you are perfectly normal!! I plan on doing the same with DS.

    i am the same way.  i am so sad i have to go back to work next week and i am going to be away from him for 12+ hours.  It makes me sick to my stomach thinking about it.  I have a feeling he will be in our room for a few more months.  It would be nice to be able to put him in his own room but right now i think i need him more than he needs me.

    DS slept in the RnP for 3 weeks while we were in the process of moving.  As soon as his crib was set up he was sleeping in his own room.  It was not easy- I stayed by his door and held the monitor like a phone so I wouldn't miss anything but it is worth it to me.  I think we both sleep better now :)
