Transition to Big Bed

My daughter will be 2 tomorrow and I'm expecting again in December. We decided to transfer her to a new room and a new bed so baby can take over. Last night was 1.5 hours before she calmed down and was awake 4 times and today's nap I gave up on and cuddled on the couch after almost 2 hours of trying. I don't wanna give up but this mama is stressed out and tired.

Don’t give up! Change is hard, but it’s much better to do it now then after baby comes. I’m due feb and I just did the same move with my daughter. We did changes and played in her new room so it became a comfortable/ safe space. Best of luck.

Definitely play in there. Read stories on the bed during the day. Show her that it’s a comfortable place to be. If you can maybe go shopping for bedding together or even just let her pick out the pillow case. 🤷‍♀️ worked for my daughter, hopefully you find something that works for yours ❤️

So winning mom moment!! Every night she has been asking for something but I had no idea what she was asking for so I kinda just brushed it off. Last night she yelled "taggy" at me and I realized omg her comforter from her crib that has this tag she sucks on wasn't in her new bed (I was hoping to reuse the bedding in the crib (cut off the gross tag) for the new baby). Once I gave her that blanket she was sleeping in 5 mins I felt like such a bad mom. Hopefully tonight goes smooth as well

@Deb yahoo! Glad it’s been an easy fix so far. Hope it continues

Don’t feel bad! You translated toddler speak as well as you could!
