Hello!
I am having the same problem, my DD will be 3 in July aswell. We have a 3 mth old who is sleeping in our room in her bassinet. My older daughter changed rooms, and I thought i'd ease the transition by keeping her in her crib before introducing the bed. She likes her new room and has been going to sleep on her own in her crib in the new room for 3 mths. The bed was also in the room and we'd read her books on the bed but she never wanted to sleep in it. Now we've taken the crib out and dismantled it. She cannot fall asleep on her own anymore in the bed and wakes earlier. It's been late nights for us and early mornings. It's been HELL!!!! I would love to put the crib back together and put her back in!!! She just keeps getting up and asking for hugs, juice....when she does fall asleep, it's because one of us has layed with her until she's asllep. Once she's asleep she's fine. we bought her Dora sheets, which she loves but not enoght to keep her in the bed. I've tried promising presents in the morning, ...I've made a big deal when she wakes up in the morning and tell her how proud of her I am.....I don't know what else to do!!! I've tried taking a toy from her bed every time she gets up out of the bed, that didn't work either. The tricky thing is my husband works nights and my baby needs me at my older daughter's bedtime so I don't have time to lye with her till she falls asleep. My LO is usually fussy at that time. If anyone one has any ideas, I'd really appreciate it!!! I probably should have left her in there till it was a problem but I was feeling presured from people to get her out of the crib. They're not the ones dealing with lack of sleep and cranky toddlers... HELLLLLLP!!!!!!!!!!!
