We are trying to get our little one to sleep in the crib instead of a swing. She is 5 months old but the transition has not been going well at all. She screams and does not sleep. Which also leads to not eating in our case. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to make this a smoother transition? Is it ok to let a baby sleep in a swing until she overcomes her reflux? Any suggestions are appreciated.
I guess it’s what you are comfortable with. Our son slept in his swing until we had things (reflux, MSPI and ear infections) under control which was well over 6 months. He was small so he was still appropriate and safe to sleep there.
I wish I had not been so hard headed with my ds and let him sleep in his swing more often. I was dead set that he would sleep in his crib so I didn’t let him sleep in his swing much at all… but he always slept better… and my opinion now is if they are content and it is working no need to fix/change it.
