Last night I left my 20 month old to fall asleep by herself for the first time ever. She cried for about 3 minutes on her own before passing out. I HATED leaving her to cry - it was the first time I've ever done it - but bedtime has been a nightmare for months now.
Anyway, my question is, do I need to be consistent and do the same at nap time? I normally rock her to sleep for her nap. I'm worried that if I leave her to fall asleep by herself at nap time she will cry for a long time because she fights her nap even more than bedtime normally. Thanks in advance for any helpful answers.
