Any Mommas cosleep at 8 months?

Question

I'm looking for ladies who cosleep pr have coslept through 8 months for some tips and advice on switching to a crib and what to do until we can get a crib and how to dream with sleep regression

Answer

We have been cosleeping and I just started working on transitioning my 9 month old out of our bed. She is so used to sleeping in a bed and hated being "lowered" into a crib after we boobed or rocked her to sleep. As a compromise we moved her crib mattress to the floor in our room. It's working out pretty well because I just lay on the floor next to her and cuddle her to sleep as if we were in my bed but then I slowly sneak away. When she wakes in the middle of the night I can just move to the floor and lay next to her until she's back asleep, no having to pick her up and down out of the crib. I've only been doing this two nights and the first night I moved her up to my bed around 3am because I missed her next to me. This has been a tough transition on me emotionally but having her right there on her own little "bed" at the foot of our bed somehow gives me more peace than any other option I could think of. The ultimate goal is to have her in her own bed in her own room but I'm taking my time... one night at a time.
Good luck mama!

Hi! We co-slept with my daughter until recently, she is 8.5 months old. She always naps in her crib without a problem- but at night she always wanted to sleep with us. We always started the night with her in her crib but she would wake up after a few hours and want to come into our bed. We gave in because we were just so tired. However, we consistently tried to put her in her crib when she would wake up.
These last few weeks, she has been sleeping in her crib (with few exceptions). I honestly am not sure what changed. Persistence maybe? Maybe she wasn’t ready until now? 
We moved her bedtime back an hour, so maybe she is sleeping more soundly?
I wish you the best. I’m sure your little one will sleep in their crib when they’re ready! Good luck!
