My 11 wk. old daughter recently began napping only 45 minutes at a time. I have been going in and getting her out of her crib, and then sometimes she'll fall back to sleep in my arms if I'm on the computer or something. Today, though, I decided to try to put her back to sleep in her crib. Boy, was she mad! :shock: I couldn't believe how she was crying! But she kept drifting off to sleep, and then she'd wake up and cry some more. I was pretty sure she hadn't gotten enough sleep because her eyes were very heavy, she was rubbing them, and she fell asleep several times in my effort to extend her nap. I had fed her at 7:00, and then at 8:00, I did sort of a wind-down, then put her down at 8:30. She woke up at 9:20, and cried and struggled until 9:55, when she fell asleep. Soooo... on a 3-hr. cycle, she would have been due for a feeding at 10:00, just 5 min. later. Should I have let her sleep or woken her up to feed?
