Glad that worked for you, but bed or not, there's a ton of fussing that's going to happen. Maybe your kids were different, but in my experience the bed just means they fall asleep faster (which is nice, not going to argue that), it doesn't prevent your baby from waking up every 2 hours all night.
Yes, the bed was quick, and in the first six weeks there is some fussing, but the pattern gets established quickly if it is routine. I may have been lucky with all three; we never had so much fussing.
Waking up every 2 to 3 hours, but mildly and not turning on lights or getting up for a diaper change.
My son was only one who really cried, but usually during the day when overtired, or gas, or whatever. He didn't cry when in bed at night.
