I would offer advice BUT we struggled with sleep starting around 3 months (sometimes her day sleep was bad, sometimes it was night sleep) &amp; it just now resolved itself at 7 months. Nothing I did really worked...lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/10-week-old-napping-problems#post-1565936 Sun, 13 Apr 2014 15:45:15 +0000 abbydabbydoodlebug 1565936@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Sunshine: she ended up waking up by herself. I'm hoping this will be the turning point for her and she'll start sleeping better at night and taking at least 1 good nap a day. Of course she improves once mommy is freaking out enough to write a post. Lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/10-week-old-napping-problems#post-1565911 Sun, 13 Apr 2014 15:10:10 +0000 Mrs. Sunshine 1565911@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@abbydabbydoodlebug: I would let her sleep! Until you absolutely have to leave or if you don't mind being late, let her sleep until you planned on being there &amp; then get her up. My DD doesn't usually get too upset if I have to wake her. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/10-week-old-napping-problems#post-1565908 Sun, 13 Apr 2014 15:04:40 +0000 abbydabbydoodlebug 1565908@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>UPDATE:</p> <p>So... LO is taking a monster nap today. I guess the hour long nap/walk this morning reset her clock. She's going on 3 hours... Do I wake her?? She needs get sleep obviously, but we have somewhere to be in an hour. We can be late to that though if we have to. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/10-week-old-napping-problems#post-1565745 Sun, 13 Apr 2014 12:41:10 +0000 abbydabbydoodlebug 1565745@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So my 9, almost 10 week old baby's naps have gone to complete crap the past few days. She didn't sleep more than 30 naps yesterday which ended in my DH trying to calm her while she screamed for 30-40 min at her bed time. Her night sleep is also not as good as it used to be. She used to sleep 5-6 hour stretch from about 945 to 3am then another 3 hours after she ate. Now she'll only sleep 4 hours maybe. Then 2, then 40 min until she's up for the day. </p> <p>I took her for an hour and a half long walk today and she got about an hour of sleep before she woke up. She's working on her second nap right now. </p> <p>I just don't know if I'm missing her sleep signs maybe? I feed her for 30-60 minutes total, and change her diaper, and by the time I'm done with that, she's been up for like 1 hour 10 minutes which I feel like I need to put her to sleep again. But I can never tell if she's giving me sleepy signs or not. She always cries and struggle with her swaddle when I get her ready. Should I be starting more of s nap routine of books and song? Maybe white noise? Right now she's in the swing, but I'm thinking of moving her to her crib when I get the audio monitor on Tuesday. </p> <p>I'm sorry if this is long and jumbled. I just am at a loss as to how to get her to sleep longer. I'd be happy with just 1 long nap/day! </p>
