How to Transition My 8-Month-Old Back to His Crib?
Sooooo my son slept in the bed with me for the first 4 months, then he was sleeping in his crib up until he got sick about a week ago. He now only wants to sleep with me or my mom (when she's watching him) and he has to be touching you. I've tried cry it out and he'll go on forever if I let him. I usually come and get him after 10-15 mins. He use to fall asleep in my arms and I could transfer him to the crib without waking him, but as soon as I place him in his crib he's up in all 4s crying.... anyone experience this or give me some options that may help him work his way back in his crib? He just turned 8 months on the 7th....thanks 😁

I'm going through the same thing with my son! It's been going in for like 2 months. I read something about 8 month olds going through a sleep transition or something. I've been having the hardest time. I do everything! And my mom suggested I do what @dreamermom, said but he won't even sleep next to me in my bed, has to be right on me. 😫
@dreamermom, I want to try this.i swear my queen size bed isn't big enough for a crazy sleeping 11 month old😩
I pushed my daughters crib against the wall in my bedroom, took the one side rail off of it, and pushed my bed up next to it, making sure her mattress was a couple inches lower than my bed... then she would sleep in her bed... but was close enough I could touch her if needed, and she could smell my scent... then after a couple weeks I put the side back on... so she could still see and smell me... after a couple more weeks... I pulled my bed away from the crib like 2 feet, and finally after a few more weeks moved the bed across the room... and then like a month later to her own room! Took a while to make the transition... but it was smooth, and everyone got more sleep! It worked for us! Maybe it would work for you?!?
My son is doing the same thing! He used to be so good at sleeping in his crib until his teething started, now he sleeps with me every night because I get too tired to sit there and stroke him until he's fully asleep in the crib. He's slowly growing out of it, though. I keep trying every now and then to put him in hid crib. When I do, I open his window and cover him with a warm blanket. There's something about sleeping under a warm blanket in a cold room that helps him sleep better. You can also try bathing your son and using lavender scented baby soap every night, or even just use lavender essential oils (diluted, of course) on him before bed. Lavendar is great for helping with sleep and relaxation.
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
My son is one year old and i want him to go back and get use to sleeping in the crib I put him in the crib and all he does is cry and I spoke to his doctor and his doctor said let him cry like in 2 or 3 days he should get use to sleeping on his own has anyone try it ?
I need advice on getting my 5 month old to sleep on his own in his crib....he is not wanting to sleep by himself and will fall asleep with me holding him and then when I go to put him down he wakes up! And cries till I pick him up. I don’t like the cry it out method any other suggestions
what are you guys thoughts on letting your baby cry...my baby goes to sleep on me but once I put him down he crys and wakes up I don't like letting him cry like that so I pick him back up. he will be a month old in 2 days.
Tips to getting my 11week old to sleep in his crib. He cries and has a fit forever he eventually quiets down but picks right back up last night I think he fell asleep for like an hour before he was back up crying again then I just let him sleep with me :/ ugh I should of never let him sleep with me to begin with but I just wanted some sleep and now that's what he is use too 😔
Hell sleep next to me and once he's asleep I can move away, but ugghhhhh. I'd love to try the crib thing, but my bed is against the wall and the crib won't fit if I try to move everything
