My baby is almost 6 months old and he was in his moses basket till last night. He's always been a decent sleeper. Till we put him in his next to me. Safe to say I've been awake most of the night. I could maybe put him back in his moses basket for another week. But he's already too big for it.. Suggestions?

I tried my girl in the Cot in her own room for the first time last night and it was awful.
She’s usually such a good girl when it comes to going down at night but she was so upset I had to bring back into the next to me.
I think it’s going to be a bit of a rough week or two whilst we transition too x

I think it's because they've gone from a smaller space to a bigger space, my 6 week old slept in his moses inside the next to me and now just in the nest to me, which I think helped transition. He's in the moses downstairs during his down time and day sleeps. A few days a week or so they should get used to the change x

Your babies must all be quite little… mine was in the next to me from about 4 weeks and we had to put her in the full size cot from 4 months because she was too big for the next to me 😂 we had to move our chest of drawers into the toddler’s room to make room for the full cot in our room because she still wakes every two hours or so and at 4 months we definitely didn’t want her in her own room. She and the toddler are going to have to share a room when we do decide to move her out of our room and that is not a transition I am looking forward to at all, so she may be in with us for quite a long time 😂

I put my baby in travel cot last night (in my room, next to me as not ready for him to go to his own bed) and it was very difficult night… lots of moving, turning , rolling and after 1am wide awake and didn’t want to fall back asleep. He had also bad day with naps so don’t know if this was because of that or because of new ‘bed’. No clue… will see tonight 🤷♀️
