Title: 10 months- 1.5 hr nap first time ever!!
Post by: aidmam on August 04, 2005, 20:34:28 pm

after trying pat/shush and pupd for naps without success in the past i've now done (after some good advice off tghis board) the very simple jpob of all extending aidans A time then once asleep catching him at the 30 min mark just as he is coming out of his sleep cycle. i put his dummy in and placed my hand firmly on his back and within 10 mins he was back into a deep sleep and he slept for 1.5hrs.
probs in i am now at work for the nxt 5 days and its in hands of dh and my parents and in laws. i've tried to explain why we need to do this(wakes v early am) and how- although i think they'll find it hard to be patient.
oh well i'm off 3 days in a row nxt week so if things don't work out i'll try again.

thanks to those that helped me, it may not be a total cure but its a start

Excellent news!

Don't be discourgaged if the others can't do it, you keep trying on days you are home and he will get thru it -soon won't need it anymore.

Thanks for sharing, i'll file that away in my memory in case we need it at our next bumb in the napping road.  :wink:
