Transitioning from bassinet to cot

[Little Amy]

Hey country girl just wondering how it all went? My DD is 8 weeks and I'm not sure whether to leave it for a bit longer (she's tiny so could probably fit in her sleeper until 12 months!) or just bite the bullet and go for it? I'm in the lounge room atm so I can be next to her but not disturb my husband. I miss sleeping in a bed. And the tv on at night will become an issue sooner or later....

We moved DS from his cradle to his cot at 8 weeks, only because he was starting to wriggle up the cradle and I didn't want him to hit his head. It was a breeze. I just put him in his cot and that was it.

We moved ds at about 11weeks. I did it for bedtime so he was super tired. No dramas at all and he slept though the night for first time. Previously he'd wake 5-10 times a night & I'd need to rock the bassinet. I'd suggest just doing the first sleep in cot when bub is super tired. Good luck

Thanks for those responses they are soo reassuring. You only tend to hear horror stories on forums and i was just so stressed about when to move her. I think it's like the vaccinations, worse for me than for her lol.
