Hey everyone! We live in Florida and just went to visit my father in law in Washington state last week. This whole week back I have not been able to get my 14month old back on her sleep schedule and back in her crib. Our week in WA was very over stimulating for her I believe; lots of family members and their kids, so lots of unfamiliar faces for her and lots of high energy kids when she just wanted some space and time to herself. Now that we are back, I do her normal bedtime routine, bath, books, bottle..and she falls asleep on me but wakes when I put her in her crib, and cries so hard it makes her throw up. I obviously have to clean her up and get her ready for bed again. Just for her to cry and throw up in the crib again. She will only sleep on me, no crib. Should I just work on getting her back on her sleep schedule first and let her contact sleep? And THEN work on getting her back in the crib? I feel like she’s maybe too overtired to emotionally handle being back in her crib alone. Tips? Advice?? Help!

We have a similar trip coming up and I’m nervous about how it will affect my daughters schedule too. I don’t have experience with this yet, but I believe in giving them whatever they need to sleep/console in those times of special circumstances.

She sounds over tired. Let her contact nap to catch up, then slowly transition back into her regular sleeping spot. We did Hawaii (6hr difference) and it took a good 2 weeks to get back on track. We also did Europe (9hour diff) and it took 6 weeks to get back to normality. Be patient and trust your gut

Thank you guys for the help and advice! 💕
