so tired dint sleep at all
when my son was first born i was putting him in the crib for a couple of days then i stopped i said 2 my self ama put him back in when he is 1 month old then that month past then i said when he is 2 months old and now he is turning 3 months old on friday and i just put him in lastnight and he dint want 2 sleep in there at all well i think is because im not near him his crib is on the other side of the room so the only way he did sleep in there was when i was standing next 2 him grabbing his hand once i let go and go lay down he started 2 cry that was the whole night i am so so tired and now i put him on my chest and he is sleeping like an angel i should of kept him in his crib since he was born

My daughter was the same way! I ended up taking the side off the crib and putting my boxspring and mattress on the floor so it was level with it. We also do part of bedtime routine in the crib so it doesn't seem like a punishment. Hoping to slowly transition her away from holding my hand to fall asleep and eventually put the side back on

I basically did the same thing, but left the side on the crib... just pushed the crib between to my bed and the wall... we also had to get a memory foam mattress topper because she hated the mattress... after that her bed was more comfy than ours and she was close enough to smell me, so after a few months of that, I pulled the bed back like 2 feet, and she did fine... after a couple months we moved her bed across the room... again she did fine... SO a couple more months and we moved her to her own room... my friend thought I was crazy doing it that way... but neither of us suffered from lack of sleep, (there were a couple rough nights... but that will happen regardless) it worked really well for both of us! I'm planning to transition this next baby the same way!

Would putting him in there just for naps help him get accustomed to it again?

@jannibel97, what about at the foot of your bed? Then you can switch your head to the other end of the bed... just a thought
