Maybe a few times when they were sick. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-wakes-prematurely-from-a-nap-can-you-get-himher-back-down#post-129791 Thu, 19 Apr 2012 12:36:54 +0000 abbydabbydoodlebug 129791@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The other day, I was driving my niece home from a playdate and we were only 10 minutes away and she totally passed out in the car! I tried everything to keep her awake. Sing songs, open the windows, turn up the music, ask her questions, wiggle her leg... everything!</p> <p>So she had a 10 minute nap because of course she wakes up when I get her out of the car. I finally had to make her lay in bed and rub her back/forehead for 15-20 minutes to get her to take a nap. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-wakes-prematurely-from-a-nap-can-you-get-himher-back-down#post-129785 Thu, 19 Apr 2012 12:34:30 +0000 Andrea 129785@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not really, when the LO is done with a nap, that's usually it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-wakes-prematurely-from-a-nap-can-you-get-himher-back-down#post-129753 Thu, 19 Apr 2012 12:18:02 +0000 Rubies 129753@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I cannot AT ALL. Only a handful of times when I made her CIO has she been able to soothe herself to sleep. But anything after 30 minutes, she's up for good. SIGH. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-wakes-prematurely-from-a-nap-can-you-get-himher-back-down#post-129750 Thu, 19 Apr 2012 12:15:55 +0000 owlwho 129750@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My mom and MIL can, they just pat LO on the back with a shush and he goes back to sleep. But when he sees me, he just wants to be picked up and gets worse if I don't. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-wakes-prematurely-from-a-nap-can-you-get-himher-back-down#post-129726 Thu, 19 Apr 2012 12:01:29 +0000 heffalump 129726@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope. When she's up, she's up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-wakes-prematurely-from-a-nap-can-you-get-himher-back-down#post-129652 Thu, 19 Apr 2012 11:01:20 +0000 mrs. wagon 129652@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wow, lucky!! A lot of times I'd let Wagon Jr. cry for a little while and he'd fall back asleep. But for the most part, once he's up, he's up... especially now that he's older. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-wakes-prematurely-from-a-nap-can-you-get-himher-back-down#post-129647 Thu, 19 Apr 2012 10:59:08 +0000 Boogs 129647@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I never can, LO is a horrible napper, especially with me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-wakes-prematurely-from-a-nap-can-you-get-himher-back-down#post-129644 Thu, 19 Apr 2012 10:58:42 +0000 cyndistar3 129644@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, if she has slept for less than an hour and a half I put her back to bed because she gets super cranky if she doesn't get her 2 hours. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-wakes-prematurely-from-a-nap-can-you-get-himher-back-down#post-129642 Thu, 19 Apr 2012 10:57:18 +0000 Honeybee 129642@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used to be able to when DD was younger, but I haven't been able to do that since she was a little over a year. The worst is when she falls asleep in the car, and we have to try and transfer her to her bed without waking her up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-wakes-prematurely-from-a-nap-can-you-get-himher-back-down#post-129597 Thu, 19 Apr 2012 10:33:38 +0000 Mrs. Pen 129597@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>sometimes... often what wakes him up is him spitting up and being uncomfortable wet. so I clean him up, rock/nurse and he goes back to sleep. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-wakes-prematurely-from-a-nap-can-you-get-himher-back-down#post-129591 Thu, 19 Apr 2012 10:30:37 +0000 ohapostrophe 129591@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used to be able to sometimes when he was younger, but now at a year I can't :/ it's the worst when he wakes up early and I know we're messed up for the whole day! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-wakes-prematurely-from-a-nap-can-you-get-himher-back-down#post-129587 Thu, 19 Apr 2012 10:29:19 +0000 Mrs. Bee 129587@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i got charlie back down the past two days which is rare since he's older, but he's been sick. he woke up crying and was up for at least 10 min, but i got him back down and he got a nice 3 hour nap both days! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-wakes-prematurely-from-a-nap-can-you-get-himher-back-down#post-129567 Thu, 19 Apr 2012 10:20:57 +0000 chopsuey 129567@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I know LO needs more sleep if she wakes crying/whining and if I look at the clock and she's slept less than 40 minutes. </p> <p>Usually I can get her back to sleep by nursing her a little bit and lying next to her. She woke up after sleeping for 30 mins. Luckily I got her back down! </p>
