[quote=Anonymous]Mine just always hated the crib. Had to be dead asleep or he'd scream when being put in the crib. Waking up in the crib resulted in screaming so violently he'd vomit if we didn't respond immediately--and he woke up every 2-3 hours. At 20 months, we threw the mattress on the floor and he started sleeping through the night. it was like some weird switch flipped just be no longer being contained. He didn't wander at night. Didn't try to get out of the room. Didn't play (although we didn't keep toys in the room, either). He'd go to sleep, then wake up in the morning, sit on the mattress and say "mama, I up!" If only babies came with instruction manuals, right? I would have moved him to a floor bed at 6 months and saved us all a lot of heartache and gotten much-needed sleep. OP, I make no promises that moving your kid out of the crib will work miracles like it did for mine. But maybe worth a try? Can't be any worse than what you're dealing with now.[/quote]
