Transition to Toddler Bed

We decided it was time for Lucas to transition from the crib to the toddler bed. We were so wrong!!! He hated sleeping on the bed - I guess it was not making him as secure and comfy as the crib does - on top of the fact that he just could not be on it. Since he rolls a lot in the middle of the night, he would always fall. At the beginning, he used to cry but, at the end, he gave up and was sleeping on the floor. It was also a hassle because since he was "free" from the crib and able to move around by himself, he would just not stay there. OK, we really tried...but there was no way to make Lucas sleep at the toddler bed! So, we put the crib back...

Nos decidimos que estava na hora de trocar o berco do Lucas por uma caminha de crianca. Nos estavamos muito enganados!! Ele detestou dormir na caminha - acho que o berco traz uma sensacao de conforto e seguranca que nao existe com a cama - alem de nao conseguir parar em cima dela. Como o Lucas se mexe muito a noite, ele sempre caia da cama. No comeco ele chorava, mas depois ele simplesmente desistiu e passou a dormir no chao mesmo. Tambem foi uma novela porque ele passou a estar livre na cama, o que nao acontecia no berco. Entao, como ele nao queria ficar la' ele simplesmente se levantava e ia fazer qualquer outra coisa. Bem, nos tentamos, mas nao teve jeito de fazer com que o Lucas dormisse na cama. Entao, colocamos o berco de volta...
