But I want one! My oldest might have turned out like that but we were very consistent about putting him in his crib for all sleep, now he really only falls asleep alone in his bedroom. yellowbird on "Do you have a "fall asleep anywhere" child?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-fall-asleep-anywhere-child/page/2#post-2109252 Sun, 15 Mar 2015 12:52:31 +0000 yellowbird 2109252@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Nope!!

I'm always amazed when I see infants and toddlers passed out in a stroller at the mall. DS would never ever do that - he's too afraid to miss anything! snowjewelz on "Do you have a "fall asleep anywhere" child?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-fall-asleep-anywhere-child/page/2#post-2106565 Thu, 12 Mar 2015 19:43:00 +0000 snowjewelz 2106565@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I wish!!

She knows when she is tired and zonks if we're out and she's sleepy! I have done more car to crib transfers than I could count.

She'll still nap in the car or on a bike ride and we can depend on the carrier for a nap even at 2 years old, but definitely not on the floor or something like that.

Sleeps in the car if its nap time. And would sleep in a swing at someone else's house of it was nap time when he was younger. Never falls asleep on the floor or anything.

Car is always a sure thing.

He will sleep in the carseat, but only while the car is in motion. If we stop, he's awake. Otherwise, he needs bed, darkness, white noise. I'm so jealous of his cousin who is 2.5 months older - that kid just falls asleep anywhere so they can take him wherever they want and carry him in his carseat. He just passes out when he's tired. sarac on "Do you have a "fall asleep anywhere" child?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-fall-asleep-anywhere-child#post-2105864 Thu, 12 Mar 2015 12:59:36 +0000 sarac 2105864@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Yes, she's like my husband - she will literally fall asleep on the living room floor if she'd like. I see how very different my life is than people who don't have one. I never have to leave somewhere to avoid a meltdown, or rush home for naptime. She'll just nap in the car or on the bike or in someone's arms if she needs to. tinyperson on "Do you have a "fall asleep anywhere" child?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-fall-asleep-anywhere-child#post-2105841 Thu, 12 Mar 2015 12:54:32 +0000 tinyperson 2105841@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Nope - She won't sleep in the car (unless we're on the highway for at least an hour, and then it's usually only 45-60 mins), the stroller (unless we're out for a long time), or the plane -- but she does sleep in her crib nicely now :) Mrs. Sunshine on "Do you have a "fall asleep anywhere" child?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-fall-asleep-anywhere-child#post-2105839 Thu, 12 Mar 2015 12:53:44 +0000 Mrs. Sunshine 2105839@https://boards.hellobee.com/ The first 3 ish months yes but now I do not and am always jealous of kids that do! lol miramira on "Do you have a "fall asleep anywhere" child?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-fall-asleep-anywhere-child#post-2105837 Thu, 12 Mar 2015 12:53:06 +0000 miramira 2105837@https://boards.hellobee.com/ So far, yes, as long as there's motion involved!
