No Naps...I feel for ya sister!!!


What should you do with her...hmmm, I will tell you what I do wth my no-napper - I rock him, I let him pinch my arms, boobs, neck, pull my hair, arch his back, cry, slobber, scream, pinch you some more with his little pinchy fingers.....

How does that sound??

Sounds about right.....
So she doesn't nap and gets more and more cranky, So I put her to bed early, and she wakes up at 4 or 5Chat Icon

You should try what I did last night...I taped black garbage bags to the windows in my bedroom...and he slept until 6.40 am, that was from midnight!

Tonight he went down at 8 on the dot, refused a bottle and we have't heard a peep from him since then...so the question is, do I get him up for a dream feed when I go up in like 20-30 minutes?

We should get together with these kids...

Re: This child will not nap!!!

Believe me I know exactly how you feel, I have a four month old who refuses to nap unless we are in the car or I take her to walk and she is really tired....but today I discovered my new best friend....the fan over the oven....I put her in her pram as she was tired and really cranky, of course she started yelling as soon as I put her in,,,for some reason I turned the fan on and she was mesmerised and went out within 5 minutes and slept for over an hour - she hasnt done that since she was born!

She is sleeping now with the fan on....will buy a CD this weekend with some fan noise...

If you havea fan turn it on...

Good luck..there is nothing worse than a baby who refuses to sleep and fights it all the time...
