Nap time? No way!

So for the last few weeks, Max has been having trouble napping. We have 2 days per week, maybe 3 if we are lucky, when she will take more than one nap. Most days her naps last 30 minutes or less, and she will usually only take 1. This makes for a very cranky baby (and mommy). Max is clearly tired but fights it every step of the way. I have resorted to just laying her in her crib and letting her be fussy in there. She will act the same way if I hold her so why not give my arms a break?


I typed the original posting while Max was eating. Wouldn't you know, she fell asleep. Yeah! I have been paranoid to move her. She has been napping for nearly 2 hours! So here she lies, across a pillow on my lap, snoozing away....dare I complain that my butt is numb?

  3. Hilarious! Oh, how I empathize as Elizabeth fought naps all the way, and stopped completely when she was around 2. Ugh!!! But Anna was the best napper ever, so maybe next time around you will get one of those!
