What happened to my good napper???

DD is five months old, and just cut TWO teeth w/in the past week. She usually naps fine in her crib, and even her swing. For the past week or so, she will ONLY nap in her carseat in the snap n go, and has to be rocked to put to sleep. I've tried the crib, pnp, swing - and she wants nothing to do with it. She's really not in that much pain, because when she's up, she's pretty content. At this point, I am just rocking her in the stroller because she needs sleep. Am I creating a monster by starting this? Will this create a bad habit? Or is she just not herself because of the teething?

Re: What happened to my good napper???

let the teething thing happen for a little longer but then try to get back to your old groove of having her nap in the crib. i think if you start doing these things like rocking etc at 5 months and she prefers it-it could be hard to break. if she is feeling ok and you know she is, then try doing the crib again! good luck!

I'm feeling the same way. DS just cut his first tooth as well and normally he would be a very good napper, but getting him to go down this week has been difficult. Not to mention the fact that we lowered his mattress as well. I think he is having a hard time adjusting to everything at once. I am going to keep putting him in his crib though, and hopefully he will go back to being my great napper.
