OK, I know most people have already succeeded by this time, but I have had no luck getting my 6 months old to sleep in his crib. Lately, he hasn't even wanted to sleep in the cosleeper. He has also become very wiggly in bed. I had no sleep for more than a week.
So, I had hubby move the crib to our bedroom. I put the one side lower like a co-sleeper. I have been putting him in our bed awake with the sound machine on and he's been getting himself to sleep. So, I just put him in the crib awake with the sound machine on, then I lay down in our bed next to him. He kept turning to see if I was still there, but then turned away from me, played with his stuffed puppy and fell asleep on his side. He still woke up 4-5 times to nurse, but went right back to sleep in the crib with no fuss. I got the best night's sleep in ages. I feel like an all new person!!!
