We can't do this co-sleeping anymore, Thea is too mobile. Though, she will not stay asleep if we try moving her and she will not just fall asleep away from me.

Do you have a bed for her? I put my boys in their bed and I’ll lay with them until they are both sleeping. And I’ll slowly creep out the room. It’s been doing pretty good, Iv stopped co-sleeping as well and the past 2 nights my little one has been waking up a few times. It will get better I promise

@wildchildmama She woke up 3 times but was able to go to sleep fairly quickly again. Once she even was able to do it herself. I fed her, then she just laid there chewing on her paci, talking to herself til she just fall asleep again. It was a pretty successful 11.5hrs.

@wildchildmama me too! I am going to try and get her to nap less today and see if getting her down the first time will be easier. 🤞🤞🤞Thank you for your suggestions!

It's a pretty hated thing, but i did cry it out with my son and it worked great. We set a time to wait (we chose 30 min) and if he wasn't asleep or calm by that time, go in there, calm him down and restart. He never cried more than 10 minutes and after a month or so he stopped crying all together and got used to the bedtime routine

Hubby wants to just let her cry it out. It's nice to know that it may not tale very long. 🤞🤞🤞🤞
