did we do the wrong thing?
My 11 week old has been STTN for the past 2 weeks (from about 8:30-10:00 PM through 6-7 AM). He was sleeping in his cradle swing inside his room.
The past few nights we decided to try and transition him to his crib. The first night, he woke up at 4:30 am and I had to feed him to quiet him and get him back to sleep (paci and rocking did not work). I also fed him in case he was waking due to hunger, and he did finish the whole bottle.
Last night, he woke even earlier (3:30 AM) and cried. We fed him again, but he only ate 3 oz, not his usual 5.
Should we not feed him since we know he does not need to eat at night anymore? Is putting him back in the swing to sleep really bad??

Personally, I would not feed him. You know that he can do it AND he is not even finishing. He is probably doing it for comfort. Stick it out, he is adjusting to his crib.

Re: did we do the wrong thing?
Any ways to comfort him? Other than the paci and rocking?
I know at this age, it is way too young to let him cry or fuss for a really long period of time.
