Default Re: Transitioning to a bed from the crib

Thanks for all of you responses and your support. I'm taking your advice and I realize I am just going to have to let him cry it out. So we started the other night. It's been two nights. The first was horrible and last night was a little bit better. I think he's starting to realize he just needs to go to sleep in his own bed and that I will not lay down with him. We told him if he goes to bed like a good boy without crying he can get a happy face sticker in the morning. But if he doesn't behave and screams and cries then he doesn't get to watch his elmo dvd which he loves.

So we'll see how it goes today. I'll keep posting the progress. I'm super tired and am looking forward to getting some better sleep.
