So my daughter is 1 1/2 and she will NOT sleep in her own crib whatsoever. Bed. Nap. Nothing. But when she goes down for naps, I put her in my bed and she sleeps. I dont know if its due to the size or what. But I've been struggling for awhile with her sleeping in her own bed. And I dont currently have the space to set up a toddler size bed right now.

She was 6 months on the 8th January. It was my new year's resolution to at least do 1 nap a day in her cot from then. So we started with 1 nap. Sometimes I had to save the nap as she wouldn't sleep long. But it gradually got longer and when it did I then added another nap until she was having all her naps in her cot. X

My baby is 12mo next week and he's required contact naps on and off. Currently requires them. š

Iām still contact napping Iād say about 30% of that time with my 15 month old

My daughter was 7 months old. One day I put her down and she fussed for maybe 2 minutes then decided the space wasn't so bad š

My girl is 15 months and is still contact napping the vast majority of the time...

My first could happily contact nap until she dropped her last nap at 2 years old. I used to sometimes go for a walk with the buggy and bring her back once asleep and just let her sleep in the buggy in the kitchen. My second is 5 months and so far would only nap either in the pram or on me.

Completely dropped the nap soon after her 3rd birthday, so thatās when she stopped contact napping š¤·š¼āāļø
I could roll her onto the bed and escape after around 6 months, but not for long and not consistently.
Only recently at 3 years old I can ātransferā her, which just means if she falls asleep downstairs I can bring her up and put her on the bed without needing to soothe her back to sleep sheāll just roll over and get comfy herself.
I canāt imagine ever lowering her into a cot though that would wake her up instantly, Iāve only ever been able to roll her off me straight onto the bed

We started working our way towards non-contact naps around 18 months. It took a few months but we did finally get them!

With my first, pretty much from the get go she would contact nap or sleep in her crib/cot, pram, car seat etc⦠She was an easy baby!!
But with my second we are contact napping and cosleeping⦠Sheās 4 months so hoping to transition soon š

We did contact nap for morning nap and a walk in the stroller for afternoon nap. I think the motion helped him sleep. I had to go back to work at 4 months and my husband stayed home for a month so we started transitioning around this time to crib naps so he was able to sleep at daycare
