My little guy hates to sleep - we have a routine and he will start whining the second he realizes it's naptime even if he's showing clear tired signs. He is otherwise a very happy baby!
My Mom seems to like reminding me that I was also a terrible sleeper.. and that it's karma for all the times I wouldn't nap for her or kept her up!!
Am I the only one??

Yep...I was a good sleeper, and ds has always loved to sleep. I hope dd isn't inheriting dh's sleep habits, cause he doesn't sleep well at night! But, they can keep each other company, lol.

Yep - she's a great sleeper at night but not the hugest fan of naps, except for in the afternoon when she likes taking a loooonnngg one. Just like me.

My mom said I was a terribly miserable baby, as was DH according to his mom. DD was cranky until we figured out she can't have dairy and now all is right with the world. Both of our moms now wonder if we had similar problems but they didn't know it.

I got lucky, she got my DH's sleep habits. He loves his sleep and so does LO

@prettylizy: glad you figured it out! DH was apparently STTN at three weeks and would nap wherever (allegedly) so I'm pretty sure my MIL thinks I'm doing something wrong haha

I think it's too early to tell, but so far she's an awesome sleeper. I think she's inherited Dan's sleep habits though because they both talk and twitch in their sleep!

Heck no. Both DH and I could spend up to 12 hours in bed (well, I could) a day if i have nothing else to do. I can't get through the day without a nap. I looooooooove sleep (and I'm not just saying that because I haven't slept a full night in almost a year).
LO, not so much.

@scg00387: I think after 20+ years moms forget the bad stuff! Lol!

She definitely got my sleep habits - I love my sleep and can sleep through any noise/lights/disturbances etc. DH on the other hand needs perfect conditions in order to be able to sleep, and even then, he sometimes struggles with falling/staying asleep.
I'm so glad DD got my sleep habits....and hopefully all future children do too!

Nope, she's like my husband. She just needs far less sleep than average. Womp womp.
