Do you put your baby in the crib AWAKE at night?

Question

Comments welcome.

Answer

We never have. We rock to sleep. It's not an issue for us at this point, so not sleep training.

Answer

I know they say it’s good to get them used to falling asleep awake but I can’t help it when I hear her cry for to long 😬 so I end up letting her cry for around 2 minutes in the crib then I pick her up and she rests her head on my shoulder. She’s half awake when I put her down.

Answer

If I put him in the crib even slightly awake he will stand up and play😐 he falls asleep in bed with us (takes forever to get him to sleep anyway) then I move him to his crib.

Answer

Hell no! 😂😂😂

Answer

We do. Our son falls asleep around the same time every night. We also have a bedtime routine to prepare him so he realizes that it’s going to be bedtime soon. When we put him into his crib, he settles himself in and then falls asleep within 5 minutes or so. We did some sleep training with him where we’d let him self soothe for 5 minute intervals before helping him, and that really seemed to be what worked for him. Sleep is so hard though because I know that everyone, not even just our kids, are so particular about their sleep routines, so it’s hard to tell what works with them.

Answer

Goes down with a pacifier and lullaby music. No rocking here had to rock my first for two years to go to sleep wasn’t trying to go through that again especially since I’m due to habe another baby in two weeks. I started putting baby down awake since 3 months old with pacifier and lullaby music

Answer

Sleepy and rubbing his eyes then I put him down, not like wide awake

Answer

No. I nurse to sleep, then put him in his crib. I do this for naps too. They grow too quickly so I’m soaking this up. I did the same with my daughter, and she has been sleeping 12 hours every night since she was weaned(around age 2). I actually enjoy the comfort of rocking and nursing him to sleep. It would be different if he wasn’t a good sleeper or if he would not go to sleep once being placed in his crib.

Answer

I don't, OH does, which reassures me that one day she will for me so no need to rush it lol.
I feed to sleep, have from day 1, simply because it happened naturally that way as she always fell asleep on the boob for her bedtime feed!

Answer

We did sleep train him also we adjusted his nap a little we don’t let him sleep past 4 pm 
We do stick with the night time routine every night which are 
Bath 
Diaper/ Sleep sack
Turn on his white noise machine 
Book 
Bottle 
Then put him in his crib wide awake or tired depend on the day , he does play in there and move around and talk for about five minutes then he falls asleep on his own. He used to wake up every hour and to feed, I was exhausted so we decided to sleep train him now he sleeps from 7:30-6:00. But I remember it wasn’t easy to leave him cry for five minutes the hardest thing ever most of the time I went in after a minutes to sooth him. But it worked.
