Question to some experienced moms

[Guest guest]

Hey I have a question unrelated to bands, but could someone give me

some tips on what do you when your child learns to sit up on her own

(from her belly) and starts to pull up to her knees in her crib? She

doesn't know how to lye down herself. She has learned all of this in

the last 24hrs! Do I just let her cry and eventually she'll fall

over in exaustion? I do peek in on her to make sure she isn't stuck

but if I keep going in there to lay her down she gets right back up

and cries when I leave. Any advice from moms that have gone through

this. She is almost 10mo. and a very smart girl, that's why I don't

want to start any bad habits. Thanks

Hi !

I have a 3 i/2 year old son who did the same thing! We just let him

cry it out...as hard as it was. He never actually fell over.

Ultimately he would get so tired that he would sit down then lie

down. Letting him cry was so hard that I would sometimes go outside

and have my husband check on him. But it only took a few days and

soon he was content to be in his crib. I'm sure we will have to go

through it all again in a few months-Amelia (our plagio kid) is 6

months and I'm sure she'll do the same thing! Oh, I would make sure

the crib matress is at it's lowest point so she can't fall out, but

I'm sure you've thought of that.

Good Luck!

Hi …I know how hard it is when

they start doing that. When started to kneel and stand in her crib,

I would let her cry for a little bit, then go in and lower her down to her butt

so she could see how to do it herself. Then if she got back up, I let her

cry a little bit more and then showed her again how to do it herself. She

only did it for about a week and by then she was able to sit down and lie down

by herself. Stick with it, she’ll figure it out soon.

Hello

My daughter Willow did this as well, first on her knees and then

standing. She wasn't sure I think how to lay back down. I let her

cry for good 10 to 15minutes till I was sure she was tired. Then I

went in and laid her back down. Depending on her attitude we had to

do this one more time, or if she seemed like she would go to sleep I

would rub her back. Good luck as every child is different.
