I've been trying to do nap training for just the morning nap (about 2-3 hours after he wakes up, when he starts yawning and looking sleepy). I have not been doing checks because checks seemed to make things worse at night. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nap-training-help-1#post-923149 Thu, 11 Jul 2013 14:35:40 +0000 hilsy85 923149@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Are you doing nap training fro all the naps? Or just 1 a day? how many does he take? Are you doing checks? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nap-training-help-1#post-923132 Thu, 11 Jul 2013 14:32:50 +0000 Katrocap 923132@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So ... we sleep trained our 6 month old DS three weeks ago. I hesitate even admitting that because I'm afraid I'm going to jinx it. But he's been consistently sleeping through the night (at least 10 hour stretches) for three weeks.</p> <p>Now we're onto naps. He's only ever slept in his car seat, bouncy chair or on me for naps. But he's starting full-time daycare soon, so I want him to be able to sleep in a crib for naps. I tried last week: abbreviated version of bedtime routine, put him in the crib drowsy but awake, darkened room. Here's how it went ...</p> <p>Day 1: cried 15 minutes, slept 10 minutes, awoke screaming<br /> Day 2: cried 50 minutes, never slept, we stopped the nap<br /> Day 3: cried 20 minutes, slept 10 minutes, awoke screaming<br /> Day 4: cried 20 minutes, slept 15 minutes, awoke screaming</p> <p>When he wakes up he's screaming like he's scared so I don't want to leave him there to see if he can CIO and fall back asleep. Any advice? Please??? </p>
