I'm anxious to hear your replies! I have been doing this for 3-4 weeks now and am nearly at my wits end. My lo is 10 weeks old, she goes down to sleep on her own, but is up at the 45-min mark for 9.5/10 naps. I go back to work in less than 2 weeks (only 2 days), but I really thought I might have this nipped by then, because my babysitter will just say "maybe she just needs held for her naps"-my family's philosophy. She is doing better, I just put a hand on her and she falls asleep, but she gets herself awake again every 30 sec.-3 minutes for the next 45 minutes. If this does get better in the next few weeks, is it just going to happen again between 3/4 mos? Hope someone has advice for us! Sitting by the crib for 2 hours a day getting her through naps is starting to wear on me!
