Any suggestion on how to wean cloth cradle? Kid is going to be 1 yr old and still sleeps in cloth cradle and tries to jump out of it when he wakes up. tm replied. hai!!
High time to get tht kid out of this habit.it cud be dangerous ifu continue as u have mentioned the kid tried to jump..stop using it immediately.better make him tired during his sleep time by making him play..
as a first step u will have to spend spme extra time in making him occupied with some thing during his bed time.finally when the kid really needs to sleep,like it does rubbing its eyes and yawns..of course starts to even sob a little bit,out on ur shoulder just pat gently,sing something slow and melodious(gud tht babies can tolerate any voice as long as its not tooloud..hey justkidding)he will nod off to sleep.make this to be a habit..
in a week or so he will be out of cloth cradle..one pain is the weight of a one year old..
after that in a month slowyl make him used to sleep by himself..
u justsit near him,pat him,tell story or sing to him..
babies dont get addicted to anything.its all we do..so although it may take some effort and time of urs they will get used a new thing easily.only the time span of each kid varies..
i am confident in this case cos now i make my 7 month old tosleep like this only..
just give ita try afterall u r not goin to lose anything.but be patient while u try this.first day u may feel tired of it but eventually u will feel ur little starting to learn to sleep out of cradle..
