Traci / Sonya - thank you for the reassurance! It helps having just that sometimes
.
Room is fairly dark, but I guess not dark enough, I'll do something about that.
Still a little unclear on LO's Awake time between naps and when to put her down, I've tried the 2 hours, 2.5 hours, 2.75 and back again!!!
I'm just finding it a struggle each day
and I'm sure it shouldn't be like this. Everyone else, and I mean all friends and new friends met thru having LO, seem to have had babies that nap and just go to sleep in their cots fairly easily. What am I doing wrong?
Lara's not been a strong napper from the beginning, but things were getting better and longer, but something clicked in her and it all stopped.
Sorry, getting desperate as I've spent the afternoon with a friend whose baby just seems to be perfect at the moment with all sleeps etc., I not envious in a bad way, just frustrated that I can't find my LO's routine and help her out.
Incidentally, at the top of the Naps board there's a topic of Teaching sleep to 6 MO and overcoming 45 mins naps that Matthew's Mom has created in Sept 05, I've tried clicking on the link in her first post and it just take me back to the home page, any chance someone can either mail it to be direct, post it on here or just re-paste the correct link as I think that would be really useful to me and a lot of other frustrated mothers.
TIA
Karen
P.S. I will go over to PUPD board now and ask about technique for spirited ones. Sometimes feel like I'm the only person in the UK with a spirited child!!!
