Diaper Swappers

mama2lulu · 04-02-2011, 02:18 PM

My DD is 4 months old and is a great night time sleeper, averaging 11-12 hours, but she is not so great about napping during the day. I have tried to get her on a napping schedule but she is very stubborn about it. When she does fall asleep it is usually while bfing and she only sleeps for 20 min or so. I know she is tired, but when I put her in her crib she just cries.

The only thing I do differently for bedtime versus nap time is I bf in the side lying position. I can try doing that around nap time, but does anyone have any advice on napping? I am going to have to leave her with DH or my MIL some days as I will be returning to work and would like to have a nap routine down before then.
