For us, that made the difference. Right now I'm a little annoyed that DH didn't swaddle her tight enough after her 3:00 feeding, so she woke herself up at 5:30. I fed her an ounce, reswaddled her and she was out cold. If he'd swaddled her tighter, I'd probably still be asleep. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/transitioning-to-the-crib#post-571715 Mon, 18 Feb 2013 07:05:54 +0000 LittleFox 571715@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That's great! Our little guy has been sleeping for longer stretches in the pack n play (we have that instead of a crib), but still gets up at night to feed. We're also in a 1 bedroom apartment, so his pack n play is right next to the bed. I hope we can get him sleeping in it even longer soon. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/transitioning-to-the-crib#post-571712 Mon, 18 Feb 2013 06:25:36 +0000 MaisyMay 571712@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@FutureMrsMcK: At some point in the next year we want to move to a 2 bedroom so that she has her own room. I imagine that's when the hard transition will be! Tears may happen for all of us than. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/transitioning-to-the-crib#post-571649 Sun, 17 Feb 2013 23:38:05 +0000 lovehoneybee 571649@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So exciting, way to go A! </p> <p>We had a much harder transition, but we also went from co-bedding to a crib in his own room, and he was 5.5 months. There were a lot of tears...and Evan cried some too ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/transitioning-to-the-crib#post-571646 Sun, 17 Feb 2013 23:35:09 +0000 MaisyMay 571646@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@apis: Her crib is in our room, so that made it easier! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/transitioning-to-the-crib#post-570948 Sun, 17 Feb 2013 11:25:31 +0000 sorrycharlie 570948@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>awesome! LO still co-beds at night but naps in her crib. I think soon I'm going to put her down in there, and then take her into bed after midnight (which is when she wakes every 2 hours). so much easier on me for nursing that way, haha! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/transitioning-to-the-crib#post-570902 Sun, 17 Feb 2013 10:47:25 +0000 travelgirl1 570902@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That's great! With A, we had to transition because her harness meant she wouldn't fit in the moses basket anymore, but luckily for us she LOVED her crib. So happy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/transitioning-to-the-crib#post-570829 Sun, 17 Feb 2013 09:33:38 +0000 apis 570829@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think that DW was more worried about the transition from the bassinet beside our bed to the crib in his nursery than our LO was! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/transitioning-to-the-crib#post-570828 Sun, 17 Feb 2013 09:32:46 +0000 edelweiss 570828@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>that is very exciting! hope she keeps it up! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/transitioning-to-the-crib#post-570814 Sun, 17 Feb 2013 09:18:20 +0000 BelugaBean 570814@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That is exciting! Our transition was much harder but we also waited much longer than we had planned (5.5 months). Hopefully she'll keep sleeping great in her crib! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/transitioning-to-the-crib#post-570787 Sun, 17 Feb 2013 08:39:28 +0000 MaisyMay 570787@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO just slept 5 hours straight in her crib!</p> <p>She always night sleeps in the rock'n'play next to the bed, so this is huge!!! She's 8 weeks old tomorrow, but I think she's transitioned. If she's having a rough night, I'm sure we'll use the r'n'p, but hopefully she'll sleep in her crib from now on!!!</p> <p>Sorry, had to share. I was worried about what the transition would look like when it had to happen. </p>
