The baby sleeps very well at night. He has been sleeping in a nice long 5-6 hour stretch since he was about 2 months old. Then he wakes up, nurses and sleeps for another few hours before waking to eat again. He sleeps in a FP Rock and Play. We need to transition him to the crib because he is too big for the Rock and Play. He tried to sit up in it and it is not safe anymore. Secondly, the Rock and Play was recalled due to mold issues. Thankfully, ours does not have mold. Fisher Price is offering a voucher for the retail price on any other Fisher Price product. I am planning taking the voucher and using it towards a high chair.
Ok, here is the issue. He hates the crib. Hates it. I can't really blame him. To go from that snuggly little bed to a big crib...I would prefer the snuggly little bed too. I just do not know what to do.
Any ideas?
If you haven't gotten him use to the crib yet, try making the mattress be at a slight incline like the rock n play. He might like it better that way.
ReplyDeleteGood idea. Thanks!
DeleteCan you take the Rock and Play apart and put the cushion in his crib to sleep on? It would be something familiar in the new crib.
ReplyDeleteThe padding will not really lay flat. :/ But the good news is that the transition seems to be going rather well. :D
