DS is five months old and only naps in his pram, which is much preferable to when he would only nap on me! He was fed to sleep for all naps and bedtime until a couple of weeks ago, although it had stopped working for naps properly and most involved being rocked in the pram. He now goes to sleep for the night in his cot either with me next to his cot, sometimes with my hand on him, or a couple of times with me out of sight next to the door.
We had a go at cot naps this week and the first day went brilliantly. Then he decided he hates his dummy again, now refuses it and has a meltdown the instant he's in the cot. So we're back in the pram, rocking away. I think I've got overexcited and gone too quickly and ought to cut out the rocking before trying the cot again. But how do I go about this?
I do also realise this isn't the end of the world - I guess if he wants to nap in his pram forever but goes to bed nicely that's fine. But I'd like to try and get him in the cot at some point.
