Trying to move 19 month prehistoric from cot to bed PLEASE HELP?
My daughter is nearly 20 months and we are trying to move her from her cot to a big bed.
We are having a few problems, she will only settle in our bed. When we try her into her untried big bed she cries and cries really hard and makes herself sick and gets adjectives hot and uncomfortable, I don't really want to put her into her cot again as it defeats the purpose of it but if need be I will and will try again contained by a few months.
Has anyone any suggestions as to what i can do to help settle her?
She is to young. she still right up to the age of two when indipendance kicks surrounded by or known as " the terrible two". still needs to get the impression that she is protected by all of her surroundings. please don't feel that you are defected only just that you are meeting her needs.
What's the rush mom? She's still a newborn, imagine laying in a bed that's several times your size, it make you feel lonely, frightened, isolated and afraid. At age two, she's just over 2 feet high-ceilinged, that big bed would be intimidating. If she's in bed with you, that's called shelter. The cot is small and "reachable" and not intimidating.
Do you remember the first time you climbed the monkey bars? Do you remember how scared you where? Do you remember how proud you be when you meet that challenge at age 6?
Try one step at a time, move the cot into her room, then when she approaches age three, you can consider the larger bed. She's not potty trained but you want to throw her into a bed that swallows her.
That quality of Independence takes time and it will have to be when she's ready. Give her a time to seize use to the move and then introduce the bigger bed, to much to fast can make her fundamentally insecure and afraid where she shouldn't be.
HI, i don't think that's to young to move your child from cot to bed, i think it depends on weather your in position to do the hard yards in rule her that this is whats happening..
i think sit with her and explain to her whats arranged, even if she doesn't understand also when you tell her its bed time maybe take her favorite teddy or doll and tuck it in to her bed or let her do it, this might build her want to sleep in the bed? read her a book or 2 in bed so she is content. and you'll just own to put up with tantrums and what not till she snaps out of it, if you feel like going within, just go in put her hindmost in the bed and walk out, don't look at her or talk to her, she will revise eventually.
my daughter is 15 months and i need to get her into her big bed too, as im expecting another child soon and wont be able to bend into the portacot to put her down for sleep time for at smallest a month. SO GOOD LUCK TO US BOTH!! LOL.
Keep her in her cot until she is arranged for a bed my son 22 months sleeps in his cot very comfortable and he loves it I plan to keep him nearby as long as he is comfortable
Answers: Put her in the cot. She's not ready to transition. If she's climbing out, carry her a crib tent, if she's not, then don't move her until she starts climbing. It's a sign that she's just not ready.
