Our first attempt at nap training resulted in an epic, sobbing, hysterical meltdown. After 45 mins of no napping success I just took him out of his crib. Upon removal, he immediately went from hysterics to giant grin.

We have to go to a birthday party, so I'm hoping he will nap in the car, but what about next time? This afternoon if he ends up in hysterics again do I just leave him to cry? Do I take him out and then do the whole routine again later? He was definitely tired, he was nodding off as he was eating his bottle.

I'm not sure how to handle this. He never did this while night training.
