[net.kids] Sleeping problem

smw@cadtec.UUCP (Steve Wong) (05/08/85)

Several months ago we took our one year old daugther into our bed to sleep
with us because she was having a high fever that night. Ever since then she
does not want to return to her own bed. She cries fiercefully when I try
to put her back to her bed. Anyone has any good ideas on how to handle
this situation?

  We did this with our daughter and son at different times when they were
sick (fever or vomiting).  However the next night, when they were better,
it was back to their own crib.  Since you have had her in your bed for a
few months she's used to being there now.  You will have to "bite the
bullet" and keep putting her in her own bed (crib?) until she gets the
idea.  Good luck!
