LO sleeping situation

So LO has been sleeping in our bed on my chest for the past week and a half(only way he would sleep!). I need some sleep and it worries DH so I tried to transition back to the bassinet but LO just wasn't having it.. So we tried the crib tonight. Well he's sleeping great! Me not so much.. I can't take my eyes off the monitor!!! I miss him.. I know it's what's best and I'll adjust but right now I just want to run in the nursery and hold him!!!

Wish me luck I can stop staring at the video monitor long enough to fall asleep..

Re: LO sleeping situation

  • We transitioned DS to his crib a week ago and it's been great! We all sleep better. He's even had a couple stretches when he slept 6 hours. It's hard not to stare at that monitor, I agree. He was a already too big for the bassinet and I'm not comfortable bringing him into bed at night. Napping during the day is a different story.

  • You all will think I'm crazy, but we ended up with the crib in our room for DD until she was about 6 months old.  It just made me feel better to be able to roll over and look at her and see that she was alright.
  • My lo will be 5 weeks on Monday, still cosleeping in the recliner, I keep wanting to put him in the swing at night be I usually fall asleep while he nurses before he does. I'm patient, can't last forever, and I can get my snuggles in with the cutie now.
  • It went better than expected! I actually slept, real sleep for the first time since he was born. And he slept great! I wish the crib fit in our room! But it won't.. Luckily I have the video monitor!
  • DD's crib is in our room, because she is too young to share the 2nd bed with DS yet (we only have a 2/2)

    I love it, the "rooming-in" because all I need to do is look over and see how she is, and I could respond quickly. I also sleep better, knowing she is safe in her crib. In our bed, I worry how safe it is.

  • My LO won't sleep in the bassinet either! Sometimes in the swing but mostly he wants to sleep in mine or my husband's arms! I keep worrying about it but not sure how to solve it...

  • M hates sleeping in anything, I can maybe get 30 minutes. I sleep with her in the bed, sorry not sorry. We all sleep much better.
