😂😂 I believe it I probably would have killed him if he woke me while they were asleep before

@thebossmom, I will literally kick him out lol I NEED this sleep it's long overdue lol

Wow! Lucky you!! @kellyt23, I think that half the battle is ME being consistent 💪🏼

I say keep her in her crib everytime she's sleeping. And it's always best to put them in there awake and let them fall asleep. You u can break the comfort nursing by nursing right before bedtime and keeping her awake and then putting her down immediately. I heard it's common for breastfed babies to eat once during the night so maybe don't cut out that feeding completely unless you feel it's just for comfort. You got this! It won't be forever and all this work will pay off! If the crying gets to you then go step outside for a whole minute and recollect yourself and then go back in the house. My daughter has slept through the night since 5 weeks!!

My kids don't keep me up all night any more but my other half does 😂

No problem 😁 you can shoot me a message whenever if you need to

Thank you again! @thebossmom,

That's all you can do good luck ☺️

I'll have to try and see what works ! @thebossmom,

lol that's what I did anyways it worked for me but all babies are different

Even so late at night?! @thebossmom, I'm in for it tonight lol

Try and keep her awake while nursing talk to her and make faces at her and play with her a little to keep her awake until she's done that's what I was told by the lactation consultants when I asked about it

That's what I'm afraid of! @mrssanderson,

I would hold off on putting her in there at night until she gets used to napping in there during the day otherwise she'll probably be up all night.

What about the fact that she'll fall asleep nursing? @thebossmom,

If she cries at night make sure she isn't hungry or wet then continue just make sure you are checking on her to make sure she isn't wet or hungry until she does go back to sleep

How long should I let her cry at night? Waking up at 3 am for example? Let her cry for an hour then too? @thebossmom

I would recommend staying consistent it will be way easier on you and her

Would you recommend trying naps and bedtime in the same day? Or not put her through this again today? Lol @thebossmom, @mrssanderson,

We've tried the bassinet also.. as of right now her crib is in our room @bonbonmomma,

Yay! You're so welcome girl. Stick with it & she'll start falling asleep without the fuss ☺️

Get a bassinet next to your bed n move it a few inches away each night after feeding until ur down the hall n he's in the crib

Wooohooo!!!!! 🎉🎈🎊

Yea i know it was a big adjustment for me too but crib and sleep training him was the greatest thing we did!! The older they get harder it is to get them in their own room

I'm so used to just rolling over and laying on our sides for feeding and falling asleep like that so i guess this training has to start with me realizing I won't be getting as much sleep as usual 😴 @dylansmom, this stuff takes real discipline lol

It took a few weeks to be completely in his own crib. He was still waking for night feedings at that age but i never left his room to feed him. Once i put him in for bedtime he was there for the night so i would go in and nurse him and put him back in his crib after he burped and did that until morning. At around 5 months i weaned him off night feeds all together because the dr said he was a solid weight and shouldnt require feeding anymore through the night.

@dylansmom, how long did it take for him to sleep on his own? And was he still waking up for night time feedings? She always falls asleep nursing so I'm afraid she uses that for comfort because she wakes up wanting to comfort nurse every two-three hours at night.. sucks for like 3 minutes and passes back out

@mrssanderson, thank you girl!!

Yea they say not to do a lot of things but if your baby has neck control and can move side to side its not super worrisome. I always watch my son on the baby monitor anyway. Its key for babies to learn how to self soothe. We crib trained my son at 3 months and he has never slept in our room since.

I went in every 5 minutes & would just lay him back down & rub his back/head for a few minutes then leave again. Do you have a chair in there? It might even be easier to just sit in there with her for the first few days so she knows you're not just leaving her. If you look back on my posts you can see that we literally JUST went through with the crib transitioning maybe a month ago lol & my son will be a year old on Wednesday. It's tough but it does get easier

@dylansmom, I thought you weren't supposed to put objects in there with them? I guess I could get scent on her blanket

Give her a security object to help her self soothe. My son uses a bear type blankie and i used to put my scent on it then put it in the crib with him and he still uses that to self soothe

@kellyt23 just recently.. a few days maybe because she's so young everyone tried to bash me for letting her cry but she's starting to roll so I'm terrified to keep bringing her in my bed! I'd rather have her cry and be safe!

@dylansmom that's what I am trying now but she's been crying for an hour!

You've got to let her do it. You're doing good by putting her in there and she needs to do the rest. How long have you been trying?

She also likes being on her stomach but the doctor yelled at me not to put her that way!! Idk what to do 😅@mrssanderson,

Start with naps and then work into night time sleep

How long should you let them cry? Just until they fall asleep? @mrssanderson,

That's how my son was but it eventually got easier once he got used to being in there... took about a week. We learned that he preferred to be on his stomach. I go in & will rub his back/head & he'll whine until he falls asleep. It's hard to hear them cry but sometimes they just need to tire themselves out a bit. Definitely keep going in & comforting her but try not to pick her up unless she's rly crying & not just whining. Be consistent & she'll adjust!

I am! She normally naps at 11 and she's been crying in her crib since then 😫 I've been going in every few minutes (5-10) and not picking her up but patting and "shh" her.. and she'll stop crying but the second I walk away she's back crying with full force @mrssanderson, @thebossmom

Don't pick baby up when crying in the crib comfort them while leaving them in the crib so they know you are still there not abandoning them it will take time and it will definitely not be easy but you will get there momma good luck 😊🍀

Try with naps first
