Well last night we moved Lily to her own crib. It was a sad night for me but I knew it was time. She's just about grown out of the bassinet and I moved the twins to their room at two months too. Although I wasn't as sad about moving them as I was about moving Lily. Maybe it's because they had each other (plus I've actually come around on co-sleeping and enjoy it more). I had been putting her in her crib for naps the past week and she's done great so I knew she wouldn't stress too much about sleeping in her crib at night (just me). I was worried about having to get up and walk down the hall all night a ton (and doing the night thing on my own since John doesn't wake up to the monitor cries). Plus I knew she'd wake Jake up when she cried since he's such a light sleeper.
But last night went great. She went down a little late since it was bath night but was asleep by 9:30. She didn't wake up till 3:30 either for a quick feed (and she did wake Jake up, but no cries, I could just here him say "Uh oh, Lily", over and over till she finished eating) and was then back asleep till 7:15. John woke up just in time for the 3:30 feeding to help me give her some quick medicine too. Perfect timing!
I know not every night will go this smoothly but it was nice for the first night. Plus I know there will still be plenty of nights or mornings that Lily will end up in our bed, snuggled next to me.
