Yes, it's true! My precious little baby boy is now sleeping on his own, just like a big boy! He needed a bit more space than the bassinet in our room was offering. When he stretched out, he was touching the top end with his head and the bottom end with his feet. When he moved and kicked he was shaking and rocking the whole thing, so to be safe we moved him. He now has a big crib to stretch out in and move all he wants.
On his first night, he got a little worried looking when I just laid him down and walked away. It's a big crib for a little guy! He calmed down right away and had no problem sleeping. He got up once to eat around 3am, but had no problem going back to sleep on his own. On night 2, he laid down at 9:30pm and didn't wake up until 8:30am. Last night he went to sleep at 11pm and woke up at 8am, never getting up to eat.
I feel a little un-needed. :( He doesn't care that he's all alone in his room. He doesn't need to wake up and eat in the middle of the night. He goes to sleep just fine within 5-10 minutes of laying down. He doesn't have to be rocked to sleep. He's not afraid of monsters under his bed. I am not needed. In case you can't tell, this whole thing has been a little harder on me than him. Maybe someday I'll adjust.......
