I have been doing the same. I let my daughter get super tired to the point she is dozing then lay her in her crib and rub her tummy and give her a little bit of her bottle and she will go out. However when she wakes up at 3 am she has been refusing to stay in her crib so I am only calling it a partial success.
Transitioning a co-sleeping baby to crib!!
I’ve been co-sleeping with my six month old for a few months now. She’s recently started spending the weekends at her dads house and he doesn’t co-sleep, and he’s apparently had a lot of issues getting her to fall asleep and stay asleep without having someone next to her. I’m about “co-sleeped out”, too 😂 she’s getting pretty big and I want my bed back, but I don’t even know where to begin!! How do I start? Do I just let her cry it out at first? She’s a light sleeper so anytime she falls asleep in my arms or her car seat, she wakes up when I try to move her and gets super pissed at me, so I’m not sure if letting her fall asleep on my bed and just moving her to her crib will work with her. Tips/advice from experience??

We did something similar to this by taking the front of our LOs crib off and tying the legs to the bed. This way I was able to easily transition him from next to me all the time to being in his own crib and getting used to the crib rails being around him.I don't personally believe in CIO, so we were much gentler. The whole process took about 3 weeks, 1 week like this and then 1 week next to our bed with the front on, then 1 week to get him used to being in his own room. I would go in and pat his back and soothe him quite a bit still.
