I have been sleeping with my little one since day one. He is now 4.5 and trying to make the transition to his “Big Boy Bed” and it is not working so well. I really do not mind him sleeping with me as I am a single mommy and it is comforting for him an myself. Everyone is telling me “its time” he goes to his own bed. I do not know what to do and he is having difficulty and neither of us is sleeping well now going through this transition. We are on night 2. Any suggestions would be most helpful

I would also like some tips.. I have a 3.5yo and I feel like it is time to move him but I’m not sure how to go about it.

Hi Nicole, This is such a common question that I have several chapters on it in The No-Cry Sleep Solution for Toddlers & Preschoolers. If you want to send me an email I’ll send you an excerpt that fits your question. elizabeth@pantley.com You can also read excerpts here: http://www.pantley.com/elizabeth/books/index.html

First of all – it’s “time” when you and your son think it’s time. This is no one else’s business. Lots of kids sleep with their parents until age 5 or even a little longer. This is such a common question that I have a chapter on moving from co-sleeping to independent sleep in The No-Cry Sleep Solution for Toddlers & Preschoolers.
