Jamison'smama replied: well, how long did she sleep--??

I took your example---we have been talking about moving Jamison but it is just hard---so, when you said Ali was sleeping in her bed I picked up Jama (I had just laid her down from the car) and moved her to her crib. She slept for about 20 minutes but when she wakes up in there she freaks out and will not go back to sleep. So, right now she is back asleep on our bed but at least we took a step. We want to ttc sometime in October (like my body will just do that) so I want her to at least know how to sleep by herself.

Let us know how it goes--I will be pulling for you.

Heather replied: She slept for about an hour and 15. I went in to check on her and she woke up I think she might still be tired, but she wanted some lunch so maybe we will get anothe chance to nap later. Thanks for the good wishes!!

Hillbilly Housewife replied: idea!

Maybe, if you have a monitor, you can listen for sounds of her waking up, before she wakes up, so that when she's finally awake, you'll be right there and smily, so that she'll be smiley too, and think that her bed ain't that bad of a hang out spot!

chloe&tysmommy replied: WTG Ali.....thats a good start!

Heather replied: I have thought about the monitor. I just have to dig it up. Plus, I think I am going to start playing some music in there for her. That way she won't hear me come in...

mummy2girls replied: god luck in the transition... i recently transitioned jenna into her crib... because she has been sleeping with me from day one and she started to abuse me at night so it was time.

MommyToAshley replied: WTG Ali! 1hour 15 min nap is great! I hope she keeps it up for you.
