When will you transition baby?

Amjoy25 · November 2013

When will you transition baby from PnP, bassinet or co-sleeper into their own crib?

MrsStuessyWI · November 2013

There isn't the right option on there for me. We put her in her crib after 3 weeks.

bkeane619 · November 2013

Lmao @ Olga

BlessUrHeart29 · November 2013

I don't really know, bc we haven't actually talked about it, but I assume somewhere between 2-6 mos.

SuperSecretStatus · November 2013

I voted never, but I'm a crazy mom like that. I tried to put Gia in her crib for a bout 2 weeks after DH got home from Iraq (she was around 6 mos at the time), and it was a bad situation for everyone. She's 3.5 now, and I just started having her sleep in her toddler bed 2 nights ago. Zoe and I are in the room with her though so she's not alone.

I enjoy having the girls in bed with me or at least in the same room as me. I sleep way better with them being close.

allymp13 · November 2013

Last night was first night so 5.5 weeks, if he continues to sleep better in there.

yesthisiskim0401 · November 2013

I'm aiming for 2mo. DD1 was in her own room at 4mo.

taylormarie923 · November 2013

He seems to like his crib way more than the pnp so I'm thinking we will transition way sooner than I initially planned to. I always thought I would do it once he was sleeping through the night. Then I came home with a live baby and discovered he wouldn't sleep in the pnp!

nbcarlson · November 2013

I said 2-6 months but really we are bed sharing and I don't know if I'll ever put him in his crib. Might never planned on bed sharing but he won't sleep anywhere else. I guess we will see! It will probably be closer to a year if/when we do.

June2007 · November 2013

The options don't work for me. My babies always room in for the first year.

fantasticmrsfox · November 2013

My LO won't sleep anywhere but with me, but we are desperately trying to get him to sleep in his cradle. So hopefully we will make it to the 2-6 month category!

calibr8te · November 2013

There is no 'we are playing it by ear' option!

Our nursery is a floor away from us seeing as the entire top floor is our master bedroom so I am not even close to being ready to have Eli so far away from me as of yet.

Jenball717 · November 2013

My baby isn't going to grow up so it doesn't matter. I forbid it. And so does Daddy.
She wouldn't dare disobey!

mrambo3 · November 2013

I'll transition once she completely sttn. Right now she wakes at 4:30. If I can get her to sleep until at least 5:30 then I'll switch. If she's not there by 10 weeks then I'll transition anyways. I go back to work at 14 weeks and I need her out of our room before then.

babydoll22308 · November 2013

We just transitioned last night at 2 weeks. So no option to click for me.

This was us minus the rnp he loves that thing, but for some reason he took to the crib. No idea why.

when she sleeps through the night!!

We did the same

Alexandrap · November 2013

Who the hell is Olga?! Lol. Will transition him when he outgrows the bassinet so I went with 2-6 months.

Amjoy25 · November 2013

Ouuuu @alexandrap...see the newb thread. You MUST know who Olga and Chole are.

Amjoy25 · November 2013

@kimbo1216...we did away with the newb thread? Gah!

kimbo1216 · November 2013

I voted 2-6m, but it has more to do with when she starts sttn. If not sttn by 6m, then we will sleep train. So that should be the max anyway.

EmJ&B · November 2013

Btw 4 and 6 months

DD is 2 weeks, and we're thinking about trying to transition this week...maybe even tonight. She is such a noisy sleeper that I'm hoping we'll all do better with a little space. No hope for STTN any time soon, though.

Venndetta · November 2013

As soon as she sleeps through the night we will try to get her in the nursery. It's on the other side of the house and would be a pain right now as she still wakes at least once every night.

tmccord21 · November 2013

I think I'm gonna do it around 6months. I plan on nothing but the boob until then so it will make it easier since his nursery is downstairs. Plus I would like to get through the winter with him upstairs with us. I have a sneaky suspicion that it gets a little chilly downstairs in the winter.

bkeane619 · November 2013

Doing the hula hoop. Done. Snoozing in the crib as I type this.

TiffJ21 · November 2013

We will transition around 2 months. Right now she's in a bassinet next to our bed, it's just easier to have her right in our room with us while she's still nursing so frequently at night. We transitioned DS around 4 months and I'd like do try it a little earlier this time.

Lee81 · November 2013

We're a little backwards here. LO has been sleeping in her crib from the beginning but I've been sleeping in the nursery with her. We got a really nice recliner and it's super comfy but at some point, I'm going to have to start sleeping in our room again. I hadn't really thought much about when that will be. Probably when she starts sttn or when I go back to work.

This...

manders726 · November 2013

Both DD and DS have slept in their own rooms, in their own beds, since day one. DD was and DS is so noisy when they're falling asleep that if they were in the room with us, we would be zombies.

cassey910 · November 2013

I am gonna say 2-6 months

Michellepiner · November 2013

I think we will try at 3 weeks. I'm nervous about it, but hopefully it I'll be easier than we expect.

This is why we switched already bc DD is a very noisy sleeper. She did great her first night. And I slept so much better!

MammaWolf7 · November 2013

He has been in his crib since we was 4 days old. He hated the small crib that we had in our room. We have a video monitor so I'm still able to see him. His room is right next to ours

Awesome. That gives me hope! Do you use a monitor? We plan to, and did w/DS, but I can't remember if I still woke up hearing every little noise over the dumb thing anyway. DD's room is a little further away, and I want to hear her early enough that she doesn't wake her big brother. That said, if I have to have the monitor on super loud, it won't be worth the extra walk.

Real question. How do you have sex when you haven't transitioned the baby in to the nursery? Do you do it in another room or what?

Quietly.

CarolinaGirl411 · November 2013

He's been in his crib in his room since day 1 because we didn't want to have to deal with the transition phase.

Mama2be12345 · November 2013

We are planning on 6 months but we will see how it goes. LO sleeps 3-4 hours between BFing now and I quietly take her to the nursery 2x night to feed and for a diaper change so DH and I all get to share a room and are getting a decent amount of sleep. I'm pretty happy for now and the thought of not having her in her RNP next to me at night makes me kind of sad so I guess we will just see.

Crinita · November 2013

Hm, don't know but I don't think it will be until after the 1st 3 months.

Yes I use a monitor and I don't hear every little grunt through it. When she starts actually fussing I hear her.
