I know contact naps at 2 weeks old are absolutely normal, but if your baby doesn’t contact nap and is perfectly happy falling asleep on their own… how do you do it?? My little one at the moment will only nap with me if swaddled, rocked and on me, which is exhausting and rather painful if I stand for too long… what’s your trick?!

I rock my baby until he falls asleep and then I slowly sit with him for 5-8 minutes. Then I very very slowly transfer him to his next to me and keep my hand on him for a good few minutes

A wrap carrier would be good, mimics the swaddle and makes moment easier for you
