I’m really struggling to get my baby to nap in their cot. They used to nap in their pram bassinet but now will only have contact naps or naps in the stroller. What’s everyone else doing?

My son is exactly the same. He has never been a good daytime sleeper. I hope he just grows out of it one day 🤞🏻🤞🏻 everything I try doesn't work, or if I put him in his cot after he's fallen asleep on me, he just wakes up xx

Usually the only way I can get my daughter to nap is in the car, and even then it can take 20+ minutes for her to fall asleep 🙈 Sometimes she'll sleep on me. I try to get her to nap in her next to me but it can be a real battle with her to actually get her to go to sleep.

My girl only contact naps and has only ever done this as soon as we try put her down during the day she’s instantly awake 😭

Next to me or pram!

My baby used to nap in his pram but we have moved him to his stroller recently and he started napping in his cot in his room if we are at home. At night he is still in our room sleeping in his next to me.

I still keep mine in her Moses basket downstairs as advice is to keep them sleeping by u till they’re 6 months. She sleeps well in there even when her sisters are playing loudly in front of her. She’s 6 months soon so will start putting her upstairs in her crib with camera on x

Used to only nap in the pram while on the go...my feet were killing me! Just tried leaving her to cry it out for the past couple of days in her cot, sleep sack and blinds drawn and while she cries for about 10 mins she does eventually nod off on her own. Plus the crying period seems to be getting shorter 🤞🏻

My baby naps in her cot, pram or car x

Anywhere she is. Car, sofa, floor, contact. She sleeps where she gets herself comfy.
