How do you transition into a crib/own bed?
So, I’ve pretty much given up at the moment and I am co-sleeping with my almost 7mo. She usually starts her night in her crib for maaaaybe 3 hours max before she starts fighting sleeping alone after her first feed (some nights she starts fighting earlier). So, for survival, she’s sleeping with me. It’s not what I planned, but for the sake of my sanity, it’s working.
My question is how have you transitioned from co-sleeping to sleeping in their own crib/bed? I ask this because I have a weekend away coming up in a month and a half, and I am nervous she won’t sleep at all when I’m gone if she’s not used to the crib. Any advice on how to do so? I really would like her to sleep in her own crib through the night, but I also know that we both sleep so much better together. However, just going to say it (don’t come for me) but I don’t trust my boyfriend to cosleep with her safely while I’m away.
Cosleeping has been lovely and I do really enjoy it. Not what I planned or ever thought I would be doing, but here we are 🤣 I also don’t want to end up having a toddler kicking me all night, especially when I go back to work in the fall.
