I have been stalking these boards for awhile now and used them a LOT when DD was very little. She was and is a very stimulated girl. Just recently we moved her into a big girl bed because she got out once and fell and has since tried to do it again. She goes to bed well at night, but during her nap time she just plays and does not stay in her bed. I am SO FRUSTRATED! She reads books, pulls out diapers, clothes, etc. She never comes out of her room, she is content to play in there. The problem is that if she doesn't have a nap then she is SO GROUCHY later on, so I think she still needs the nap. Also, a couple of times when I can SEE how tired she is, I took her in my lap on the chair in her room and sat with her and within a MINUTE she fell asleep. I don't want to get into the habit of sitting with her every day for nap time, especially since it could create problems if we go somewhere to stay that doesn't have a rocking chair. I have no idea what to do. Help!!
