Shoud I be putting Gavin in his crib for naps?
He isnt on a strict schedule, so I have been letting him nap in his bouncer, boppy or swing.......wherever he falls asleep......

same here.. DD isnt on a schedule either, so her naps are always in her swing or bouncy seat. Her naps arent that long anyway, by the time i got her in crib it will over.

My opinion? If your DC can sleep somewhere other than their crib, LET them! My DD can't/won't sleep/nap anywhere other than her crib and it's freakin annoying!! (Well, she does fall asleep in her carseat, but I don't count that!)

When DS was younger, I'd let him be...
Swing, Carriage (after coming in for a walk), heck, he used to pass out on the floor in the den playing with his toys.
Since he was about 10 or 11 months old, he's been napping in his crib.

DS naps in the papasan swing. It's great because I can get 2 hours of peace while he sleeps.

But, I'm so scared of what to do when he outgrows it Chat Icon

Any help is welcome!!!!!!

When DD was an infant, she napped wherever she fell asleep. Once we got into a routine, she only napped in her crib.

I just read somewhere that when they fall asleep in the swing you should turn it off so that they don't get used to sleeping with "movement" (if that makes sense).

Sabrina just started taking somewhat "regular" naps. She gets cranky so we pop in the binky (she only gets it to sleep) and I rock her until just after her eyes close. Then I lay her in her crib. If she does fall asleep in the swing or bouncy seat I usually will just leave her there, but she has been doing that less and less now.

My Dd sleeps in her crib at night , no problem, but the only place she 'll take a nap past few days is our bed, and I let her,why not.(I did put her down in her crib about 2 hours ago and she's sound asleep)
