Why do I feel so guilty?
I feel like if my DD isn't sleeping I should be interacting with her and holding her all the time but I just can't sometimes. She likes to be bounced on the stability ball so we do that and I talk to her but after a while my back hurts. I try to talk to her when she's in the bouncy seat but her time in there is usually short lived. I love her to death but its so hard to hold her when she's super fidgety and fussy so I'll put her in the swing and usually she'll relax and fall asleep. She's in there right now dozing off but I feel guilty like I'm forcing her to sleep because I can't hold her.

If she's falling esleep in the swing it's possible that maybe she NEEDS to fall esleep.
I know if I overstimulate Emily she gets to be very cranky. She can only take so much my talking and oogling at her.

Thanks. I didn't think about the overstimulating idea.
She does look so uncomfortable in the swing. Her poor little head is slouched over.
