CP- Can you put your LO down drowsy?

MeganequineMeganequine member
in February 2012 Moms

I've been reading a bunch of sleep books.  Some reccommend putting your LO down drowsy, but some also say that not all LO are okay with that until they are older. 

After reading our many sleeping posts, it got me thinking.  How many of you can actually put down your LO drowsy, have them be okay with it and they fall asleep?

My LO goes from drowsy to wide awake or crying if I put him down drowsy.

    My DS will never ever take a nap in his crib if I put him down drowsy, but we always do at night and he goes to sleep.

    I always put DS down awake. He falls asleep within ten minutes. We do always have the sound machine on and him swaddled though. Otherwise he generally won't fall asleep on his own.

    She goes down drowsy, and sometimes awake. We give her a paci and she has a soothe and glow seahorse. By the time the seahorse has played all the way through (about 5min) she is asleep. Rarely, we have to play the seahorse twice.

    I turn on his mobile and give him a paci.   He usually spaces out then goes down.  He does cry and fuss a little but it's just a few minutes then he's out.

     

    Doesn't work all the time but I'd say 80% of the time he does.

    SOMETIMES!

    if she is really really tired and I swaddle her and give her a paci, she will go to sleep (if paci doesnt fall out 50 times).

    I cant get this to work for bedtime though, only naps and middle of the night. bedtime she still has to be rocked (which after working all day I dont mind holding her)

    I can barely put her down in a deep sleep, much less drowsy. I'm trying not to worry because none of those sleep tricks worked for ds2.
