my 9 week old has never napped in her basket, only on me or in the pram. but at night she would go 2-3.5 hours in the crib, waking for food. she used to have to be I a v deep sleep before putting down, but it was getting easier.
on Friday I started to try to get her to nap not on me, through pick up when she cries, put down when calm. it was not successful and through Friday and Saturday she only managed a couple of 20 mins and was exhausted. Sunday we abandoned as she was tired and miserable as was I.
but. last night and tonight she won't sleep in her crib. tonight she did 45 mins and woke herself at the end of her sleep cycle. I am trying to calm her and wait till deeply asleep. last night at 2 I brought her into our bed.
have I broken what good sleep habits she had? what can I do yo get us back to what now looks likes a brilliant place. I have bought a sling now for the day and happy if she has to nap on me for now but what about the nights? for I feel so guilty
