Its best not to start baby sleeping with mom or both parents. Since you already started out on the wrong foot, you must now be consistent and firm in letting the baby know she must sleep in her own crib. It will not be easy and you will be tempted to give into your baby, but be strong and keep putting the baby in her crib. The baby will cry and hopefully will cry her self to sleep before long. However, If you stay firm in your mission and focus on the desired outcome (A more restful sleep for mom %26amp; Dad), it should work out. Just continue to put her in her crib each time the baby is tired or falls asleep, she will eventually learn that her crib is where she is supposed to sleep and nap. I think the key is to be consistent. Good luck. Hope this helps.
I feel better now knowing that another baby is out there that is exactly like my baby girl. I have a 20 month old girl who still uses an infant swing to go to sleep in. When we put her to bed in the crib she screams like someone is torchering her. She has been getting a little better sleeping in the crib, fortunately.So, me and you are having similar problems.I thought that me and my husband were the only ones going through this.
Ok. I do agree with letting them cry. I have a 2yr. old who went throught he same thing. They WILL control you if you let them. The microwave heating pad and shirt with your scent is a great idea. (be sure to check for hot-spots) BUT!!! If your gonna let her cry it out, check on her regularly (without her seeing you). I heard a story before that the mother was going through the same problem, every one told her ';let her cry it out';. So, she did. Well......when she checked on her a half hour later and the baby finally fell asleep, she found that the little girl had vomited. (I would feel ABSOLUTELY horrible if I was that mom). So, to prevent anything like that check on her often!!! But yes, don't give in to her, in a few days to a week, she'll be fine.





P.S. If you have an extra hundred dollars or so, go to any baby store and get the tv baby monitor. IT';S AWESOME!!!! Can't live without it. My youngest son is almost 3 and I still use it on him. It's in B %26amp; W, but gets the job done. You can see exactly what they are doing and you have no worries.
Think on this, Mommm...kids will sleep ANYWHERE!!! And often in positions that make US hurt!!! lol





Sooo, it's not that she doesn't want to sleep there, she's simply not yet associated it with a place to sleep comfortably. It's bigger, not cozier...and wee ones are all about snuggly %26amp; warm. Got one of those flax-type heating pads, like the ones you lay on your shoulders to heat your neck area %26amp; can heat in the microwave??? If not, you really need to get one...priceless for keeping feets warm!!! Getting back on subject...heat this to slightly warm %26amp; make sure no edges feel hot...put this in one of your shirts that you have worn and place it next to her with her favorite soft toy or teddy on top of it. She will soon sense the warmth, smell your aroma, and cuddle up thinking about how nice that is, and be calmed and out like a lite in no time. She may give a crying spell every now %26amp; then, but will seek comfort quickly with the you she has handy...See???





Think like a kid, it helps thru out all of parenthood!!!! Keeps ya youthful, too. lol





Good Journey!!!
I most def agree with not you31!!!!! This may sound bad but it's not!!!.... for a while we just use to let our now 9 month old cry till he finally fell asleep. He was fine his diaper was dry, he wasn't hungry or anything so what the heck??? Just let her cry, she will get use to it....Besides it's good for her lungs.
my baby brother never had a crib my mother is to worried maybe if he has slept in the same bed as you for most of his life he is so used to it he dosent want to change his sleeping area
separation anxiety. warm up her blanket in the dryer before putting her to bed. this might help her feel like you are there with her.
You are going to have to let her cry and get used to it. Otherwise she will control you.
oh sh!t! She got a crib?
