Transitioning baby from Moses basket to cot

[SurinaKhan]

Hi there. Does anyone have any tips of moving baby from basket to cot? My 7 month old still sleeps in her basket, which she's really outgrown now! She's a small baby which is why she's managed to stay in the basket for this long but it's time to move her. I've tried putting the basket in the cot, but she wont have it. She doesnt sleep with any toys so cant put anything familiar in the cot (she'll also be in her own room). Have tried for a few days now but nothing seems to work and Ive ended up with her back in the basket again :( .

Have you tried making the bed up so it only takes up the bottom third of the cot - looks odd, but is a smaller space for her to move in.

Def make the cot seem smaller you can buy what looks like a breast feeding pillow but smaller to put around baby to make them feel more secure.
