So I think we've been lucky. actually they sleep in soft crates the zip over night and they have 4 other little beds they lay around in during the day. I dont trust leaving them out all night to ramble or whatever they might decide to do. |
Howie is 4.5 months old. That's why I've been hesitant to let him sleep in my room/bed at all. He still has to get up in the middle of the night to go potty. His normal time, which I've noticed is about 2-3:00 am to go out and pee and poo. So, I'm up waiting for him. Last night, I wasnt quick enough and he went for his poo (yes, he's a poo eater

) Even when I tell him, bed time, time to go to sleep and even put him in his bed, he'll follow me til I get in my bed. Lights turned off, dim in the halls, he'll still run around. Hopefully it's just an age thing and/or trying to adjust to being able to roam around at night vs. being in his play pen.
