My toddler is a lovely child. I spend a lot of time with them, I lovingly refer to them as my permanent companion. I cannot step outside for a cigarette without them coming out with me. No problem, but at some point I'd like to transition them to their own bed. They sleep in ours every single night, and generally sleep much better in there and for longer.

Has anyone transitioned a kid to their own bed after a long time of co sleeping? They don't fall asleep on their own yet and I lay with them until they fall asleep, but if I try in their room it's tears until we're back in the big bed.

    Oh, this is a good idea. I could set up a bed in our room pretty easily, even dolled up a bit. There's nights when I love it with them in bed, but yeah, toddler feet in my face all night can be tiring.

    Hoping the falling asleep on their own eventually just happens. I know they do it at daycare (praise those ladies for teaching my kids those skills), so it's possible.
