My daugheter is 11 week and has always been a great nightime sleeper, but average napper, usually sleeping for 40 minutes in her crib and then waking up and only able to get back to to sleep in her swing (which we turn off when she is asleep).
Her awake time is usally short, only abuot 40 minutes, although the last few days she has been more alert and smiley during this time. She's still cranky at the end of the of the hour.
As of a few days ago she will not sleep in her crib during the day, nor her swing for that matter. She will go down in the crib and talk for 45 minutes to herself and then start to cry, in the end she completely skips sleeping. By the end of the day she has awake time after eating, and talk and smiles and then by the time she is tired cannot be put down without a meltdown.
Last night my husband had to hold her for an hour prior to bed.
Two nights ago she started sleeping 9 hours through the night (8:30p-5am) , but during the day she is NOT napping. So far today we have had twenty minutes in the crib.
I thought the 40 minute naps were bad, but this is killing me. I go back to work next week and I am not sure what to do. Any advice?
