Mommy is officially crazy

So I think I might have one of the craziest mommies in the world. I did well at the beginning of last week by sleeping in my pack n play at night, but this week I won't have it. The funny thing is that my mommy can put me in her bed, perpendicular to her body (not even touching) and I am content. But try to put me in my pack n play, then it is all over. Mommy thought maybe I didn't like the mattress, so her remedy.... move the guest bed into my nursery and try to put me down in my crib. Then once I sleep in my crib, move the guest bed out and I am on my own. The reason she did this is because you have to unscrew my crib to get it out the door, so it made more sense to move her bed in. Second, I still get up every 2-3 hours and like I said I won't settle down if you put me in my own bed. The first night we tried this, I was horrible. I had a belly ache. I didn't let mommy put me in my bed until 7 AM. Last night went a little better. Mommy fed me, put me down in my crib, I went crazy, she gave me my pacifier and patted me for almost an hour and I finally gave in and went to sleep. I woke up 2 hours later, ate, mommy tried for 30 minutes to get me content in my bed, but she was too tired and I won round 2. I slept in mommy's bed for 3 hours, then ate, mom tried for an hour to get me to stay in my crib, and right as I was giving in, the dogs busted in the door and woke me up, so mom gave in again. Mommy wants to know if anyone has suggestions for helping me sleep in my own bed. Her tactics don't seem to be working.

  1. Poor Mommy, Just keep on keeping on Mommy!
    Luke will get it sooner or later, Mommy just needs it sooner. Maybe Nonnie will have better luck this weekend. You have to impress her with all your new skills!

  4. Maybe its your smell. Lay in his crib one day, roll around and get your scent in there, and maybe he will sleep in there. Ha Ha. All joking aside since I am sure you are frustrated...where does he nap? Or does he...
