Floor bed

growing up, to transition us out of the crib, my brothers and I all started on a mattress on the floor. Worked very well especially since I am very wiggly in my sleep. That's what I would recommend!

We started with just the mattress on the floor in a pretty much empty childproofed room. We started with naps only for like 2 weeks then went into bed time. My hubs puts him down for bed and then one of us goes in when he wakes up. Before one of us would be in there before midnight, then after a month or 2 it changed to one or two. Now most nights we can get till at least 3 but usually later. Last week he slept 3 nights in a row by himself from 10ish to 8ish🥳 I am not sure that is the right way to do it but thats what works with us. I guess the biggest thing is try and keep the routine as normal as possible. For example every night we eat dinner at 6, play, shower at 7, play some more, milk and book at 845, brush teeth at 9 and I give him goodnight kisses and then dad takes him in and puts him to bed.
