Not sleeping during the day

Is she happy and content during the day or is she fussy and tired?

Do you help her nap? Dark room, sound machine, etc?

yes shes always playing happy. But gets tired and then I swaddle her get her ready for bed once I put her down she’s up and becomes supper irritable. It’s so bad. I have a sound machine. I close the blinds but obviously it’s not super super dark like night time ☹️

Yeah, she’s probably overtired at that point. Have you tried baby wearing or seeing if she’ll nap in a stroller?

yes she naps in the stroller we get home and she wakes up almost as if she knows she’s not outside. Or in the car too. She starts getting irritated when I baby wear her

One thought - at 16 weeks she may be ready to transition from the saddle. We transitioned our girl early early because she hated it and not having her hands free to chew on

we’ve tried she doesn’t sleep 😭😭😭😭 I’m struggling but will try again

A lot of babies only prefer contact naps at that age so if it’s possible see if she’ll sleep on you but not in a carrier. Also awake windows really are true - do you try putting her down after 1.5-2 hours awake?

You may have to start incorporating nap walks just to help her get some sleep until she starts tolerating other naps better?
