Out of nowhere, Nathan boycotted his crib three nights ago. We were staying at the corporate apartment in NJ, so after far more crying than any of needed from him, we let him go to sleep in the queen-sized bed in his room up there. For two nights, we moved him back to his crib after he was asleep, afraid of his rolling out...but now that we see that this seems to be a permanent decision, I bought him a bed rail yesterday, and he slept so well last night - he didn't wake up until 9am!!!
When we get home tonight, we'll set up the futon in his room, and then we'll set him up with his twin "big boy bed" once we get moved into the new house - no sense in moving all the furniture around when we've only got a handful of nights left before the move.
I have been so nervous about this transition...should we try to do it before the move...should we do it when we move and just have one big transition...should we put him back in his crib in his new room, and then move him once he seems "ready"? And after all of the worrying, he did just what he's done with so many other things - he just made up his mind one day, and it was done!
