naps...

Claire has started to slow down on the nap thing (finally). While it's good because that means I can go places and not interupt her sleep cycle, she has gone ito hyperdrive of not wanting to take a nap and when she does, it lasts exactly as long as I'm nursing her, then she wakes up and is cranky. I know she NEEDS naps, I just can't get her to take them lately. Any suggestions? I could sure use one right now. ha ha.
I love, love, love music. I can't get enough of it. It's a good thing I have so many friends and my MOM to discuss it all with. Right now I'm trying to find Nessun dorme from Turandot by Puccini on my playlist. It says it doesn't exist. If anyone else can find it, let me know.

I am terrible at naps, especially when they are so little. I have a hard time just letting them cry. Ok, I am a wuss!

I must say, I'm SHOCKED at how much PINK the girl wears in the slideshow. :) No nap suggestions, good luck.

The nap thing is sooooo HARD! Sydney was never good at it, but for me the two things that helped were having a routine before naps and doing it at the same time each day. Pick a song you can play in the background or sing to her when you nurse her before a nap, or read the same book. Just know that it is super hard-so its okay if she doesn't do it well, I used to blame myself and now I know everyone struggles! :)
