Landon Sleeping In His Own Bed Posted: 12-14-06 11:58am
Hey ladies! Well, for the past month and
a half landon has ended up sleeping in our
bed :s I dont like him being so far away
and he seemed to like it obviously, but
now I feel really bad because he has to
learn to sleep in his own bed. So last
night he fell asleep at 9pm and woke up at
430 ( which is when he usually wakes up,
just that once and then sleeps til 8am) so
its awesome! But last nite I put him in
his own bed and he woke up at 430 and I
fed him without taking him out of his crib
because I thot then he probably wouldn't
fall asleep in his own bed again. Then he
just wanted to play and was wide awake!
So I tried walking around with him for 10
min or so to put him to sleep cuz he was
yawning and stuff , my husband said just
put him in our bed and see wat happens,
and as soon as his head touched that
pillow, he was out. So I just wanted to
know wat you ladies think I should do ,
when I feed him in the middle of the nite
should I take him out of his crib? Or
leave him in there? Or..Just wanted some
imput. Thanks!

I think you need to make a new routine.
Take him out of his crib, feed him, rock
him a bit or do whatever he likes, and put
him back down. He just needs to get used
to things.
Do you not burp him? I'm just wondering
because you said you didn't take him out.
If I don't burp finn or he falls asleep
without burping he usually throws up all
over himself.

Dont' you burp him after every feeding?
I wouldnt' not burp her because the times
the she would burp she ended up puking all
over the bed. It's happened like 3 times.
But melia sleeps in her own bed until
she starts moving around until like 3 or 4
and then I put her in my bed without
feeding her and she sleeps til I wake her
in the mornings when we have to leave for
work. And on the weekends she sleeps
until 8 or 9ish.
So I think that is fine. I sleep much
better when she is in her crib...But I
sleep longer when she is in the bed with
me. So I do both.

oh alrite , so just feed him like I
usually do during the day like feed him
while holding him burp him but should I
put him down awake ? That usualy doesnt
work too good, gotta put him down while
hes sleeping or tired usually works, but
not sure wat to do if hes just wide awake
in his crib when I put him back down. And
yes I do burp him hehe opps, just sat him
up in his crib last night and burped him
My son is the same. After he wakes up in
the morning to eat, for some reason he
will go right back to bed if I put him in
our bed.
Oh well, whatever, I dont care. I would
rather go back to sleep then have to
entertain him that early in the morning,
lol!!

yes I do burp him everytime. Ya thats wat
landon does, he sleeps straight threw til
430am, then eats then sleeps straight til
8am. And last nite after his feeding at
430 I put him in my bed and it worked
really good, but I dont know if im going
to be making a bad habbit by keep putting
him in our bed like that in the long end u
kno?
Laura, when my son is still wide awake, I
put him in his bouncy and he watches a
baby einstein. Knocks him right out

When .Oni got sick (before her .R.S.V) she
started sleeping in our bed.
So, when I put her in her crib, I put a
pillow behind her, to mimic my body. Then
I put a dirty(not really dirty, just worn)
shirt by her so she can smell my scent.
That really calms them down.
How old is he now??
He's got to learn that his bed is for
sleeping, not yours.
During the day, put him in his crib to
nap. And when he wakes up, let him lay
there for a min to soak up his
surroundings.
I put .Oni in her bed wide awake and she
falls asleep. It took me a while to
accomplish totally, but she's a pro
now!!
