Whose baby is in a crib and who is in a bassinet?
We still have Mckenzie in a bassinet in our room. When should she be transitioned over to her crib? Is the transition hard?

Pack and Play in our room - but lately vibrating seat because of his reflux and bad cold I have been trying to keep him as elevated as possible. We will also
keep him in our room longer because he is going to have to share a room with Sam.
With Sam we moved him into his crib about 11 weeks. We noticed that our noises were waking him up and vice versa - and when we switched him, he basically began sleeping through the night. |

we just put the pack and play away and have the crib set up. Although if I'm being honest here he sleeps in my bed with me

I've brought Mckenzie into bed with me like twice! Both times she was fussy and mommy was tired!
 She falls right asleep when she is close to me! And
she sleeps for like 3 hours!!! It was heaven!! 
I'm not sure when we are going to transition her over. She is still so small....

i remember my first son was 7 weeks old when i moved him..that entire week he only woke up once a night
 then week 8 he finally slept through the night! it
was like he didn't have enough room in that basinett adn once he went to the crib he could stretch out
my second son was probably around the same age (not sure why i never remember exact things with him ) he did awesome when we moved him too 
neither of my kids really did well in the basinett...but i'll try it again this time around...till she's ready for the crib..and sleeping better at night |

Well Jason has never been a huge fan of laying flat on his back so for the first month he was in the bouncy seat. He didn't like the bassinet so I elevated
one end of his crib mattress so he's laying on a slant. He'll sleep for 4 hours at a time at night. The transition to the crib was fairly easy since I
had him on a slant. I have rolled up blankets on each side of him and tuck blankets around his feet so he doesn't slide.

She sleeps in bed with us sometimes but mostly she sleeps in her car seat because of her reflux.

It's been awhile for us now that Parker is 4, but we moved him at about 7 weeks. I did read somewhere that if you are going to move them to a crib in their
own room it is wise to do so before 3 months, because at that point they understand they are in your room. I read Healthy Sleep Habits Happy Baby and from 7
weeks on he was going to be at 7pm, up at 6am and took two 2 hour naps per day.
