Is it too soon?

I have a few questions! First off Julian is sleeping in his own bed for the first time tonight. I am super scared that it may be too early! What do you all think? He is 3 months excatally tomorrow! He dosnt seem to sleep very well in his pack n play in our room. Im not sure if its just not comfy or what it is. Maybe I am just the nervous one! Second I am scared that he may have a problem with his lip. Eveyone keeps telling me that it is where his nipple to his bottle sits but I wanted some input! On the inside of his lip is a clear bump. It has been there for a while and I dont know what its from. I will bring it up to his ped when I go but it makes me nervous! Do you guys agree it is from the nipple or something else?

Yeah sounds like the callus is normal, and Riley had something similar to it, it went away within a month, for him.

As far as sleeping, well if that's what you personally choose to do, that is totally fine. But I kinda feel the same as Nadia, in that I would not put him in his own room myself, until he was a bit older.

However, mine is in his crib, IN my room. I know not everyone has room to do this, but at least with this way, he'll be used to his crib when we make the transition, and for now he can be right next to my bed.

JoyRenee is right! I forgot about that...it will peel sometimes and TRY your best not to pick at it! It's very difficult when your child has a piece of skin sticking off of their lip, but try to refrain from doing so :)

My son's was just as JoyRenee said...right in the middle of his upper lip.

If you're talking about a little bubble on the middle of his upper lip, that's a callous that forms from the nipples on the bottles. It WILL go away! It may also peel at some point, so don't pick at it.

And your little one will be just fine in his room. Keep the monitor on and check on him if you need to!

Don't worry!!!  It's totally from the bottle and it will go away on it's own. My son had that for about 2 months and I was very worried like you are. Some people refer to it as a "bottle blister"...has anyone used that term with you? My son didn't seem bothered by it and his doctor said that it was completely normal.

Feel better? It will be fine!
