Where does your LO take naps? - Page 2

my LO naps almsot anywhere lol....we go out a lot since we both seem to get bored at home so when the cleaning is mostly done we are out and about. she will nap almsot anywhere, especially her carseat if we are driving but those are short naps....she will nap on the couch when i am downstairs or i her crib with the monitor on....she also has little cat naps in her swing or the stroller or even her bouncy chair. i like her longer nap in the middle of the day to be in a bed on her crib, so if i am at a friends house she is on a bed.....it definately sounds like your little one is going through a growth spurt. when my baby went through growth spurts before, i think i ended up more exhausted than her lol.....and i think our three month is starting now too............good luck!

On me!!, he will fall asleep in the moses basket but wont stay for long, he really hates it. He loves the carrier and sleeps straight away in that. we have a co-sleeping cot and he sleeps in that at night. He will sleep in the pram when he is moving, not a hope when it's stopped!!

Omar naps in his cot in our bedroom since day one with the monitor on. I close the blinds but keep little day light coming in. He naps well during the day, & sleep through at night. It never confused him. He doesnt have problem to nap on his bouncy chair, but I always carry him inside to his cot as he naps much better.

We have only really started to get into a decent nap routine in the past couple of weeks and there is still some way to go! LO now naps in her moses basket and goes down fine, although this took some work. I am now working on getting her to take a longer nap over lunchtime. If we are out, she will sleep fine in the pram or car seat. When she was younger I just let her sleep anywhere. It was at about 6 weeks that she started to suffer when she got over tired.

I only put Andrew upstairs in his cot for naps when he's really really struggling to go to sleep and getting over-tired, the change of environment seems to settle him. Normally he naps in his bouncy chair or travel cot/playpen.

wherever she is when she gets tired sometimes - in bouncy chair, car seat, pram, cot, someones chest, over someones shoulder!

I try to give her 2 good naps in her cot a day if we're at home, then she cat naps in the places above! lol. she has fallen asleep sitting bolt upright on the sofa before!

Madison naps in her pram/car seat if we're out or the bouncer chair, me or on the sofa indoors.
