that babies are suppose to like to sleep!!
Running out of patience for the fighting an hour+ to fall asleep after I see the first yawn. Short naps and 2 hour, 3 hour if we are lucky, stretches at night, just isn't cutting it for me!!!

@Smurfette: If you are just wanting to vent and don't want advice feel free to ignore me! But have you tried getting her down BEFORE she shows any signs of tiredness? I do much better with my LO if I just give her an hour of awake time and then start getting her ready for her nap, regardless of whether she shows signs of tiredness or not.

My son didn't get that message either, so you're not alone!

Yeah . . . we've been at this for 7 months now. At this point, 2-3 hour stretches are an *improvement* . . . you will be amazed at how well you do on so little sleep!

saying a prayer to the sleep gods for you! hope you get some better sleep soon!

@Smurfette: I feel your pain! DD wakes up sometimes and starts laughing and babbling... one time i picked her up and put her face to face and said babies are supposed to sleep and she giggled at me

@MamaMoose: When she wakes up from her nap, I feed her, 20 mins max, then we play for a little bit, diaper change, so that is 20-30mins, then she is yawning. So I am not sure how much earlier I can put her down. She will go down and I think she is asleep and the she wakes up crying all over again. She does this about 3 times before she will go out. She is only napping like 30 mins or so, even swaddled up.
