I dont know what to make of this...sleep related

So DD wakes at 3AM for her bottle. I was doing a little science experiment (or I was really lazy) and decided to mover her from her bassinett (yes I have not transitioned yet!) to my bed at that 3AM wakeup. Well wouldnt you know..she slept there in silence until 6:30- took a bottle and went down until 9:30 Chat Icon
I go back to work on Wednesday and I have to leave at 6:30. How awsome would that be if she did that everyday? Why does she sleep in my bed without a peep but fusses after 3AM when shes not? Should I train her maybe to sleep until 6AM..but I just hate sleeping with her in my bed. I really dont sleep at all when shes in there .

Personally I think having her sleep in your bed would be creating a bad habit. You said you don't sleep well with her there so why do it?

Maybe you should transition her to her crib?

I am so being a baby about the transitioning. I dont think it will help anything other then me shelping her into my bed because Im half sleeping when she wakes.
Any other thoughts before its my bedtime?

Unfortunately, this is part of being a parent.

Many of us have done it, it is exhausting, but do-able. My DS didn't sleep through the night til he was 1 and I got up everynight by myself to feed him.

Hopefully, your DD will start sleeping through the night soon, but it may not be in 3 daysChat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon
