Hellobee Boards

This doesn't help..... But I always figured whatever works, do it. If LO falls asleep eating, fine. If she only sleeps on me, fine, I'll leave her there. I was so tired when she was little I didn't care, I just wanted her to sleep.

Of course she wasn't the best napper when she was little, but at 8 months she magically started sleeping in her crib and has been a great napper ever since so giving into her wants as a newborn didn't break her. Now at 19 months at nap time I say, "it's nappy time!" and she gets a big smile and says, "night night!" and I put her in her crib, she rolls over, and that's that for two hours. Easy peasy.

You are not alone!!! Los naps suck...he wake up the second I put him down now.

You are not the only one. I can't get my son down either and he's almost 2 now. We spent 30 minutes for him to sleep for 45 minutes. Ugh. I sympathize. Most of the time I let daddy and daycare handle it.

Yup it's the boobs. That's why mr bee now puts olive down for all her naps.

@artbee: I am so glad to hear there is hope! My LO is 6.5 months old and she is an awful napper. I will often times let her nap in my arms just so she gets some sleep...but, then I get nothing done! Hoping things improve soon

@Mrs. Bee: Can you explain why M. fights me so much? Not having the boob in the equation has been a positive on many levels, but unfortunately it hasn't helped on this account!

Hee hee, I just realized, it's probably because I work too much!
