Hi, my DS is nearly 10 months old and he doesn't really have any daytime routine re napping. He sometimes naps, sometimes doesn't, often depending what we are doing and where we are. If we are at home I tend to give him a breastfeed around 130 / 2pm which can make him fall asleep for his nap. He rarely falls asleep in his pram now when we are out as he loves to watch everything going on round about him but he will often fall asleep on the way home in his carseat.
He starts nursery in a few months time when I go back to work and I am worrying how he will go down for a nap! They said that they are used to getting babies down for a nap but DH will also have him for a day each week and I don't think DS would just go for a nap without being breastfed and DH won't know what to do. So I'm thinking I need to start introducing a way to get DS down- how do you all do it? Where do they nap and are they in a sleeping bag or something? Just now I just lay DS down on bouncy chair and starting to put him in cot, but just lay a blanket over him as he is already asleep upon transfer to cot.
