Yes I'm going to have to figure out when she needs another nap here shortly! I am so drained from having to be so stressed about her crying!!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-nap-training-mess-up-night-sleep#post-945408 Fri, 19 Jul 2013 09:37:38 +0000 NovBaby1112 945408@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't think that doing that for just 1 nap will mess up her night sleep. Just make sure she isn't overtired bc then she may have more wake ups at night. Babies differentiate day and night sleep so I am sure you will be fine tonight. Do nap training when you feel ready. For what it's worth, I nursed my 8 month old to sleep for all naps, but starting last week she refused to nurse to sleep for her morning nap, so I just plopped her in the crib to see what would happen. She cried for 3 mins and passed out. Ever since then I have been able to put her in the crib awake and she'll either fuss for a few or just go to bed. I don't want to jinx anything, but it was seriously so much easier than I ever thought, so I bet when your lo is ready she will do the same. She went from "omg need to nurse and be totally asleep or ill scream once I hit the mattress" to "oh ok I can put myself to sleep now, don't need you anymore mom!" </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-nap-training-mess-up-night-sleep#post-945368 Fri, 19 Jul 2013 09:28:49 +0000 PrincessBaby 945368@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I recently sleep trained my LO w/CIO. I am drained but she's doing great, sleeping 730-730 w/a 530 wakeup to feed.</p> <p>I've still been nursing to sleep for naps.</p> <p>Today she was so tired and ready for her nap. She nursed but would not go all the way to sleep. I needed to use the bathroom and let the dog out. I was getting exhausted from trying to get her down so I took a chance and just dropped her in the crib, knowing she was fed/clean/tired. She cried on and off for 30 mins, dozing here and there. Obviously I was hoping she'd fall asleep in less than a minute like she does for bed. After 30 minutes, she woke up for good screaming her face off so I just went and got her.</p> <p>I also realized that I am not ready to nap train, bc I'n still too emotionally drained from sleep training.</p> <p>Do you think that this little experiment is going to confuse her or affect her sleep training? Does nap training typically mess with night sleep?</p> <p>She's been doing AWESOME and I dont want to screw it up! My husband comes home after being gone 3 weeks today- I want her to go down as painless as possible and STAY DOWN!!! </p>
