Parenting after a Loss

Big Boy Crib Update

Baby Boots slept in his big boy crib last night. .  for 7.5 hours!!! He finally woke up at 4:30, ate a little bit and then we put him back down on our bed for the rest of the night.
:\">

That is almost a record for him, he usually only makes it 4, 5 or maybe 6 hours his 1st shift. I think maybe he is waking up and fussing a bit so we immediately pick him up and feed him when he's in our room, when in actuality he would put himself back to sleep if we left him be. Again
:\">

Now we didn't sleep all that well because we were both up to check on him (we have a video monitor so at least we don't have to get out of bed) but hey, it's a start!

So thank you everyone for your advice and input! It's a big milestone. :-D

Re: Big Boy Crib Update

  • That is awesome! It will be even better when you get 7 hours of sleep too! LOL. It took me about a week to stop checking on DS every few hours.

  • Well done, baby boots! Tate has been in his crib from the beginning, however the crib is in our room because the master bedroom is downstairs and the other bedrooms are too far away upstairs. He still gets up every 4 hours to eat, and makes tons of noise in his sleep, so our dilemma is when we will be brave enough to move the crib up to his room. (We do have a monitor, but too chicken) :-S

  • @LauraKat81 That's great! Baby Boots sleeps in his mamaroo a lot during the day. He seems to prefer that to laying flat and he likes the motion.
