Put Baby in Crib Without Waking it Up - Provide your baby with the optimal sleep environment. Babies sleep easier in a quiet, dark room, when properly swaddled in a receiving blanket.
Ensure that your baby has indeed entered deep sleep. Signs include limp limbs and shallow breathing. This could take up to twenty minutes after your baby has initially fallen asleep.
Put Baby in Crib Without Waking it Up
Supporting your baby's head in your hands and his body in your arms, bend from the waist, and lower your baby into his crib, keeping him close to your body until this is no longer possible.
Once your baby is lying flat in his crib, allow your hand to rest under his head for a moment more as he settles.
Slip your hand out from under your baby's head carefully and quietly creep from the room.
The moment has arrived. After what seems like hours of feeding, rocking, and cuddling your baby, he has finally fallen asleep. Unfortunately, he has fallen asleep in your arms and is such a light sleeper that when you place him in his crib he always wakes up. Before you give up and spend your nights sleeping with your baby on your chest in a rocking chair, read on to learn how to place your baby in his crib without waking him up. - by eHow
