Nap-time help PLEASE!
My DD is four months old. She is a great sleeper at night. She goes from around 9-4 then a bottle then back to sleep until 8-10. But my problem is naps! She was always a 30 minute napper.About 2 weeks ago we stopped swaddling Recently, she only sleeps in the car, the stroller on a walk or while eating. If not she is screaming!
I tried the swing it works sometimes . I tried some white noise of a small fan. Any ideas? I am going back to work soon and could use the help~

I'd just let her nap in the swing. DS napped in the swing until about 5 months old.

Re: Nap-time help PLEASE!
This was my DD - she would nap 40 min...no longer no shorter. I think some babies can survive without long naps especially when they sleep through the night. My DD slept through the night almost the same hours as yours!
Anyway I did want to say it got better around 7 months...she takes longer naps now. All together she naps 2-3 hours a day. Usually a 2 hour nap and a 1 hour nap. Or two 1.5 naps. So hang in there - they will start to stretch them out. Also DD had to CIO for naps. She never cry more than 10-12 min and would fall asleep. We did the swing on and off too but not for every nap.
