I started the transition to the crib

(6 months) and it is not going well. What I read said to start with naps - so this is just regarding NAPS - but he won’t put himself to sleep anymore when he’s in there (he used to put himself to sleep for naps). If I can get him to sleep and transfer him, he wakes up within 5 min if he stays asleep upon transfer. The room is dark, as cool as we can get it (working on making it cooler), and the white noise is on. I’ve tried WITH his sleep suit and without and neither has worked. This mama NEEDS nap times so I can rest or get things done!!

**I am well aware that some moms feel the baby shouldn’t transition until 1 year, but this is what is best for us so please keep your negative comments to yourself**
