Taking a chance by posting this....

Ok, I'm risking jinxing myself by posting this, but I am happy to report that for the past 3 nights Jacob has slept in his CRIB!!! Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

I built him a receiving blanket "fort" that surrounds him. I rolled the blankets up and made sort of a oval shape around his body figured maybe he would feel like he was still in the car seat. I also have the postioner in the center and I use the miracle blanket to swaddle him nice and TIGHT. Oh and I also have the wedge that goes under the sheet that elevates him slightly for the Acid Reflux problem.

So far the past three nights I have fed him his last bottle in the glider, then he is usually either asleep or almost asleep where the eyelids are opening and closing. I put him down around 8, he sleeps till 2ish (sometimes he wakes earlier but i go in and put the paci in and rub him a bit and he drifts off again) At 2ish when he starts really crying, i take him out, change him, feed him, back in the crib again and he stays asleep till about 6am.

Oh and i also have a CD playing of instrumental lullabyes (that i played for him in utero) that i put on "repeat" so it plays all night long over and over...

So I am hoping this is a breakthrough and that it will continue. Now if i can just get him in there for his naps and outta the swing.... BUT... BEGGARS CANT BE CHOOSERS AT THIS POINT!!
Thanks to everyone who gave me tips and ideas... i'll keep ya posted....
