In this episode of Eight Hundred and Thirty-Two Weekends, Tony shares his experience transitioning his baby from the Snoo bassinet to a full crib—a big milestone that came with some unexpected stress. After months of the Snoo keeping his baby safely swaddled and on his back, seeing him suddenly sleeping sideways, sprawled out, or even on his stomach was nerve-wracking at first.

Tony walks through how they approached the transition, what worked, and how he learned to trust his baby’s ability to adjust. He also shares helpful takeaways for parents preparing for this change, including how weaning mode, a safe sleep environment, and sticking with familiar sleep cues can make the process smoother.
