Is this possible?
I LOVE co-sleeping. You'd think with all the complaining I'd love to haul Paige (daughter) to her crib all night but no, I'm a sucker for a good snuggle.
She's seven months, and still not sleeping through the night, but I think for the first half of the night I'd like for her to zzz in the crib for "practice" when we move and get a house with a big girl bedroom...
I don't know as I never co-slept and the whole thing makes me really nervous, espcially with newborns.
I think you'll have to go cold turkey and do one or the other.
It's all about her developing coping mechanisms on her own. I'm not saying, ignore her cries. I'm saying that it is a valuable skill and one that needs to be taught.
