Not a popular suggestion but we let DS CIO. Hard at first but now he doesn't fight us to sleep.

Have you tired a swing for her naps??

For the midnite feeding, I actually wake up and feed DD while she is in bassinet. Trying to not pick her up as often. She drinks an ounce or two and goes back to sleep.

My son would only nap with us holding him. But then I got the miracle blanket, and he naps beautifully. They say that the baby senses the heat difference, from you holding them, to you putting them down.

My son didn't nap on his own until he started walking! Since I failed miserably at that, I have no suggestions only sympathy! Do whatever works, thats my suggestion!

We had the same problem, but then we started swaddling DS. We did that for about a month and now he naps without the swaddle.

mine still only naps while being held. I have just learned to deal with it. I type with one hand while he's on me and read a lot.
