DD is 22 months tomorrow, wow. Where has all the time gone? That said, I really would like to get her out of the crib by 2 and in to the toddler bed we bought her but I am very nervous about doing so. She isn't climbing out of the crib and I feel very lucky for that...so I know I don't have to rush. I also still have a tall lingerie chest that needs to be attached to the wall and the 6 drawer dresser too. I have been putting that off as she doesn't play in her room without me there so I can supervise.

Anyway, I am skeptical to change her over as she still doesn't sleep through the night every night. We have about one night a week that she makes it through. The rest of the nights, DD gets up at least once, stands in bed yelling "Mommy" in her I need you voice so I go running. I give her a hug, put her back in bed, put her music on and tell her it is time to go back to sleep. It usually works well and then we make it till 5 am ish.

I am not worried about her going to sleep in the bed as I still, don't flame me here, rock her to sleep most nights. DD may end up my only one so I am taking my time with the rocking.

Anyway, I guess what I am asking for advice on is how to get her consistently sleeping through the night so I can relax and get a full nights sleep myself? I have tried the cry to sleep method when I have tried too many times to put her back to sleep but feel I can't do that for my own sanity too much longer. It was different letting her cry before she called out for "Mommy".

Any suggestions?
