Sleeping advice needed

Before I became a mom, I never knew how conflicted I would feel about every single thing. I’m usually a pretty decisive person, but I feel such mom guilt and could use some advice.

My baby girl is two months old and we’ve been bed sharing since she was a few days old because she absolutely hated her bassinet (spare me the judgement, please). She is exclusively breast fed and it just worked best for us for night time feedings. In the first few weeks she woke every hour and a half or so to eat. She’s been extending that, and began 3-4 hour stretches, then 5-6, and within the last week has been sleeping from roughly 10/11pm to 5:00/6:00am when I change and feed her (she’s only been peeing over night now) and then she immediately falls asleep again and sleeps until about 7:30/8:30am. She does need to be rocked to sleep and that can sometimes be a battle, but she’s become a great sleeper.

Here’s my dilemma...when I put her to nap in her crib during the day, her naps are very short (1 hr at most). I’m not sure if that’s because she’s sleeping more at night, or if it’s because she doesn’t like to sleep on her own. She naps longer in her swing (supervised) or while shes being held, which I don’t mind. I’m so conflicted about when to transition her to her crib. I feel like if I wait too long it may be harder for her to transition, but at the same time I feel like I’m not ready to do that...she’s still so young it seems like 😞

I guess I’m just wanting to hear your experiences...what worked for you? Do you have any regrets? I am not willing to do the Cry It Out method (no judgement to those who believe or follow this, it’s just not for me).

Thanks,
