the"how does your baby nap" thread

ok you lot, how does your baby nap?

Here i am on baby no3 and still I do not have the sort of baby who will just go down in a cot/bassinet either awake and asleep or will stay asleep once put down.

the only place my girl sleeps right now is ON me! Which wasn't so hard with baby no 1 or even baby no 2, but now I have two other little people needing me and I can't always get all the things done that I need to with her sleeping in the sling/carrier. Changing a reluctant toddler nappy with the toddler mentioned kicking at me while lying on his back with a baby in a sling is NOT easy !!!

I know that this too shall pass, so I'm not too worried. But reassure me, that i'm not the only mama wearing her baby with a messy house!!!:

Same here! For a while I could put him down in his car seat and he would sleep. Now he seems to immediately wake up as soon as I put him down. My first ds was the same way...sigh...

I have been so blessed to have good babies. Like my others Lukas sleeps in 3-4 hour stretches and wakes 2 times a night to snack. Co-sleeping may have something to do with it.

You might try a sling or swing and see if that helps.
