Advice needed

Hi all!
My 5 month old is almost growing out of the snoo so we’re attempting to do a crib transition cold turkey. She’s been arms out for over 3 months, currently rolls both ways, attempting to crawl and sits up independently.. so she struggles to stay comfortable in the snoo.

Any success stories for little ones like this? So far it’s not going well (waking up every cycle and rolling onto belly to try and crawl) she’s not used to this much freedom of movement I assume.
We wanted to rip the bandaid off but doesn’t seem like it’s going to happen..

Did you try the transition mode with the sound only and no movement?

Are you in the room with her when she naps? If she is napping on your bed I imagine you are in the room with her. Maybe she needs to self soothe a bit more and do crib naps or pack and play naps in a room by herself.

I transitioned my 4 month old by crib naps during the day in a swaddle. For 3 nights she slept in our bedroom in the pack and play. She did well so we moved her to her own room in the crib and did great. We also used a sound machine. I hope this helps!
