I would vote for the crappy sleeper...easily fixed. However I agree with the other ladies that the crying all day kid will come around I'm sure shortly.
No not at all!! Just asking for the sake of asking! My others all started and are settled in already. I started them all at least 3-4 weeks apart (opened in Jan). My kids are all great. All the crappy nappers are now excellent nappers. They are all laid back and easy going kids. This new one is only on day 3 and frankly is doing great. The child is just adjusting differently than my others did and I was curious what others preferences are!

I suspect I will always prefer the opposite of what I am currently transitioning as everything seems better after the fact.

This little one does instantly calm when held. Which makes things so much easier as I read on here many caregivers have a child that just screams all day whether held, or not. I don't hold him all day and often just tune his crying out and go about our day...but it is nice to be able to pick him up when the other parents come for pick up so he's not sitting there wailing away while I chat with them. It's just a matter of time. But this time goes by in slowwww motion.

It does mess up our day and it sucks though. My other 4 LOVE story time we sit and read for 20minutes a day all cuddled up...but this new one just SCREAMS through it because the kids are all close (and if I put the child farther away then the child screams because I am not close). I don't want to skip storytime because it is loved so much but it really isn't the same with the screaming! Hopefully just a matter of a few days to get it all figured out and get settled in and calm will return!
