If they're ready, they just don't look back. Daniel never complained once and was just so content.

I think he liked the idea he could get out in the morning, of his own accord, and play with his cars even though we were still in bed. He just wanders down to see us if he wants to. Whereas, in the cot, he couldn't get out on his own terms so he would get really agitated and always woke up crying.

He never gets out of the bed in the dark though, so he does lie there calling us. BUT.... I remember doing that as a kid too!
