We did the move from cot to big bed at the weekend - had to go cold turkey as no space for both the cot and bed. Anyway, DD is being a bit of a pickle about going to sleep in the bed - once asleep, she's sleeping fine (waking up once or twice during the night, but that's normal), but getting her to sleep in the bed, is a different matter.

I had to lie down with her at nap time to get her to sleep, but I don't want her to get into a habit of this with a nb on the way. DH gave her some milk last night, which she hasn't had for a couple of months now, so again, don't want to get into a habit.

To begin with at nap time, it was just whingeing, which I will often ignore, but as I tried to walk out, she worked herself into a state, until I gave in and lied down.

What works for your LO's? Any tips?

TIA
