Transitioning from bed sharing to crib

I’m off of work for a couple days this week and I want to take this time off to transition him to his crib. With my first son, I would leave him in his crib and check on him/reassure him every couple minutes but he literally cried for 1.5 hours every time, slept for 30 min, and woke up crying ballistically again. He ended up transitioning on his own later. Im afraid the same will happen with this one and I am dreading the non-stop crying! Anyone else who bed shares transition to the crib recently? What did yall do...how long did it take? I want my bed back for my own comfort and for my relationship with my husband! I just want to throw him in his crib 😫
