My son is afraid of his crib Posted: 04-24-08 20:00pm
My sons is 13 months and hes been sleeping
with us at night for the past few months
due to unexpected circumstances. But now
were trying to get him sleeping in his
crib. The first night we tried he
screamed. And after a few hours brought
him in with me.
The second night I couldnt even get in his
room and he was already screaming. So ive
moved the crib into my room and hoping to
start off in here and then move his crib
back into his room. But everytime he even
looks at the crib he screams. He wont fall
asleep in the crib, he falls asleep in my
arms as soon as i lay him down in there he
screams. Ive tried letting him cry for a
little bit but he gets himself so worked
up he starts chocking and starts having a
hard time breathing.
If anyone has any advice it would really
help.
He has a mobile, and a turtle that plays
soothing music and lights.

i dont know if its possible, or if you
would be comfortable with it (because
technically hes still to young to use it)
but maybe try a toddler bed? thats all i
can really think of, im sorry, good luck

i put my son in a toddler bed at 14 months
and he was fine with it.. you just got to
make sure if he gets out of his bed he
wont be able to get into things he's not
allowed to. so like put a gate on the door
of his room
