Mama's Big Boy

The first night we came home from the hospital Keldan started out in the bassinet. He didn't care much for the mattress/padding in it. I was not suppose to be doing steps anyways, so we decided to stay downstairs on the couch. He slept better there. After almost 2 weeks we tried the pack-n-play. He slept in that for awhile. When he turned about a mth is when he started to not feel so good. If I wanted to get sleep, I had to hold him. I was a little hesitant of this at first. I was afraid that he might roll off or if he was beside me I might roll on him. But I didn't! After he was on the antacids, he decided he didn't want to be on me anymore :(

Saturday night, we moved to the crib. He has slept in it for 3 nights so far and loves it! He goes to bed around 10ish and gets up for a bottle between 5 and 6. He falls right back to sleep and wakes up around 8:30-9. I'm sleeping on a mattress right beside him. The first night I didn't sleep at all, but its going better. It was hard to let him go! After 3 mths you feel lost without them! Hopefully soon I will let go and sleep in my own bed again. I'm so proud of him.
