Tips for transition to the cot

Can everyone give me any hints or tips for transitioning to the cot please 🙏 currently takes naps in the Moses basket in living room & sleeps at night in the next2me in my room. She goes down and stays down brilliantly in both but want to start getting her used to the cot so that in 2 months she can go to sleep at night in her own room. Not sure what’s the best tactic to take 😆

I'm aware this won't work for everyone... but I just went for it. Put her in her sleeping bag like normal and there was no difference in her sleep. The cot is currently in our bedroom so she sleeps in there overnight and still sleeps well. So maybe give it a go and see what happens! ☺️

I started putting her up for naps in cot. She now sleeps in her own room. Has done since she was 3 months 😊 best thing we did as we all sleep better 😊

Don’t over think it. Lots of play time in the cot and nap times too! I’m going to sleep in my little one’s room soon with him and he will go in his big cot then

I put my LG in her Moses basket and put that inside the cot. I actually do that every night and then transfer her into our room when we go to bed. I think that has helped her get used to her room so now I do day time naps directly in her cot

Try her naps in her cot during the day. How we did it with our LB for night time is we put the Moses basket in the cot at first without the mattress in so he could get use to the feel of the bigger cot but still feeling safe we then moved him out once he had got use to this and put him on the mattress he has been fine he goes down between 7:30 and 8:30pm wakes for 1 feed in the night and gets up at 6

I just went for it and she slept so much better than she had been!

Well done muma x
