[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why don't you have a family bed. Or put his crib right next to your side of the bed?
This is a very smart human. Humans are not meant to be caged and put five miles
away from a mother in a dark room away from you.
Is this so hard to understand? He just want you. Mother, at his side,
for protection and safety. Children who sleeps next to their parents
are happier, smarter and have greater sense of security.

Baby animals sleep next to their moms. This is  just as  nature intended. 
[b]Would you like to sleep away from  your husband far far away in the dark
end of the house? [/b]To this little baby it is horrific experience.
His brain is big enough to understand and he feels the horror.
You can damage him for life.[/quote]

Yes I would. And I actually do. And we are crazy in love with each other. Probably because we both get a good night's sleep. [/quote]
OMG a dark room all to myself for sleeping?  That's my fantasy!  I love my husband and children dearly but I do not want a family bed.

OP my DS went through this around 21 months - I just assumed it was a reaction to me being 9 months pregnant. I rocked him until he would fall asleep and put him in the crib. He usually cried when I left the room but only for a few minutes. I would probably give in and do whatever was necessary to get him to sleep in his crib, even if it means sitting in the glider in his room for an hour. I don't know if that's the greatest solution, but I can't have kids in my bed or I won't sleep. [/quote]
