Musical Beds

When we travel with baby, we have him sleep in a PeaPod travel bed. It's comfortable and folds up easily into small size that we can put in a carry-on bag.

He usually sleeps well in the travel bed, or "tent" as we call it. Lately though, he's been waking up many times in the night (he's teething), so we're grateful if we can get him to sleep anywhere - even if it's in the bed between us. Neither of us enjoy that arrangement though - it gets a little cramped.

The hotel room here in Seattle has two double beds in it. When baby wakes up screaming in his tent, I bring him back to our bed. Once he's fallen asleep, wife and I get up out of the bed (leaving him in the middle), and go to the other bed. If baby wakes up again, I bring him over to our new bed, wait for him to fall asleep, and then we move back to the other bed. Repeat as needed.
