co-sleeping crib transition??

Question

hey Mama's! 
I'm bed sharing with my 15 week old son, but I want to start sleep training next month when he turns 4 months. did you co-sleep and then transition to crib? what did you start and how long did it take for the transition to take? I love bed sharing, but he wont take a nap longer than 30 minutes and I'm wondering if bed sharing is to blame. as much as I would like to nap as much as my baby I got things to do! haha

Answer

4 month sleep regression is REAL!!! I'm going thru it right now!! 😩😩😩

Answer

Usually you want to wait til 6mo yo start to sleep train, as there's a really great (ugly) sleep regression at 4mo and bedsharing it the only way I've gotten through it lol. My LO is 6mo now and we've started training him to his crib. Usually he still nurses to sleep, but once he's asleep I put him down in his crib with the lights already off and white noise on. When he wakes up, I go in and put a hand on his chest and speak soothingly. Then I leave him. 50/50 he will fall back asleep or I'll have to nurse again. It takes time and patience! Every night he sleeps a little longer alone in his crib. 💕 You can pick up "Healthy Sleep Habits, Happy Baby", great book and very helpful!!!

I use a baby chair so they don’t get use to getting held or having you near my newborn loves it

Then around 5-6 months i put them in the crib.
