We decided to convert Hayden's crib to the toddler bed. Over our last many weekends of sleeping away from home, we noticed he slept great in regular beds. We have been struggling with sleep in general at home since we got rid of the binky.
Sunday night he was very very mad to be back in his crib. So mad in fact he literally threw up all over his bed, blankets, stuffed animals, carpet, etc...
So at that moment Joey and I decided something needed to change. Joey gave Hayden a bath, and I started cleaning up the bedroom.
After his bath, Hayden pitched in with the transformation of his crib.
Once we had everything picked up and put back together we laid him in his "new" bed, tucked him in, and he fell right to sleep.
Nap time rolled around the next afternoon, he protested for 3 minutes by banging on his bedroom door, and then surrendered, climbed back into his bed, and crashed.
He now no longer protests at nap time, and we have not had an issue yet at bedtime. Which is awesome. He never cried when we put him to bed before we took the binky away. Since we took the binky away, he cried every time.
Now no crying again. That makes us all happy. Hopefully we have less crying now in his new bed!!!!
