Oh, and I know we always talk about the Holt Board..but another couple put the crib in their room with the side down smack up against their bed (once the baby outgrew the co-sleeper)...Good Luck! Keep doing the right thing!! (and where do you buy a floor mat?) Maybe we should invest in these!Christanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4966308245020297490.post-1911941136851949822008-09-06T17:30:37.000-04:002008-09-06T17:30:37.000-04:00You poor thing!!!!!

I will say (still) that I think you guys are doing an AMAZING job and I am glad that you talked to a professional who confirmed your ideas. I miss you at work, its just not the same without you.

Very impressive. But absolutely I agree with the doc - let little Poppy take as long as she wants. And please, if you have time, we'd love the titles of those books! Happy co-sleeping! (We've still got Olive on the floor next to us too. I don't think the move to the crib would go well for any of us...)saintlouisfrickshttp://www.ahimsa-creations.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4966308245020297490.post-44284367045016985682008-09-25T00:55:18.000-04:002008-09-25T00:55:18.000-04:00Oh, this is such a hard transition!!

We actually slept on the floor (on top of an eggcrate mattress topper) in Kaneu's room (we took turns because we couldn't all fit). Gradually we moved him into his crib - first during naptime, after he fell asleep, and I was always sure to be there when he was waking up and giving him lots of positive reinforement. The biggest thing I had a difficult time with was listening to my gut instinct. It sounds like you guys are on the ball with following yours and seeing the specialist. That is so great to know that there is someone closeby who can address your concerns. You guys are doing great!Danahttp://www.sunnyinmommyland.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
