Napping

Every kids diff. My first baby co napped and co slept. He wouldn’t sleep at all without me. He’s 3 and sometimes the odd night crawls in my bed during the nights

My second baby is 4 months old and HATES when I cuddle her lol. She likes to sleep alone!

Enjoy the cuddles ❤️

Same, my baby still has naps on me whenever she can. She only has 1 nap, max 2h and honestly I really cherish this time. I love it, can see how settled and safe she is and can't imagine to do her naps any other way. Before I tried to put her down for a nap or night sleep countless of times in her bed but it always fails. So we cosleep and she has naps on me. It was possible to put her down a handful of times but when I tried to do something around the house, I always woke her up because i.e I dropped a pan 🙃 so I stopped trying to fit into the pressure of perfect housewife and just enjoyed my baby 💕

Yup! My baby will *only* contact nap. If I transfer her or try and get her to nap anywhere else, she will just stay awake. And I mean she would genuinely stay awake for HOURS. She might entertain herself for 5 minutes but then she will just cry until I go to get her

If it works for you and your baby then keep doing it. As you've said YOU are the one who has to manage with an overtired child xx

My baby used to have to be put down, but since eleven months or so she’s back into contact napping and I love it. Was so sad at how quick it ended, and made up it’s back on. I don’t have any stuff to get done that’s more important than cherishing my daughter.

I have slept with both my kids, my daughter is 5 my son is
4m. ppl can say that all the time “put them where they should/need to be. I co nap or slept with my daughter until she was 3 because I was a single mom now I have a 4 month boy and he sleeps in his bed or with me

Yep! Also if that’s my only break in the day, sorry but I’m not prioritising dishes, I’m prioritising myself x
