How do you do daytime naps?

Question

What is y’alls routine for naps during the day? My 9 week old will only nap on me for 2+ hours and I hate being held hostage lol if I put her down she will wake within 10-20mins. 
Suggestions please!! I work at home and will be going back August 1st and I need to get nap times down prior to 🤷🏼‍♀️

Answer

It depends on the day here. Some days she naps great in her pack n play and other days she won't nap for anything!! She's 9 weeks today too.

Answer

She used to nap in her pack n play but lately ive been taking her into the nursery with blackout shades feeding her laying down in bed and staying next to her until she is out 20-30 mins

Answer

My 9 week old still doesn't really nap. 🤷
She sleeps through the night so she will only sleep for 20-40 minutes here and there after a feeding most days. I can only get her to nap maybe once a week for more than an hour.

Answer

My baby girl has been the same recently! I feel like I used to be able to put her down when she was only drowsy and she would put herself to sleep but lately she can be in a deep sleep and I put her down and she may make it 20-30 minutes on a good day. But she will nap 2-2.5 hours or until I wake her up on me or in the carrier. I thought it was a leap we were going through but now I don’t know! But she does so good at night so I hate to complain!

Answer

My babe has taken 1 nap in her bassinet. Ever 😂 She sleeps on me during the day. My house is a disaster but she’s rested and I’m all caught up on what’s new on Netflix lol

Answer

My boy is the same but it’s more like he’ll wake up after only 5 minutes if I put him down, even if he’s in the deepest sleep 😩
So no suggestions here I’m afraid but you’re not on your own! 😕

Answer

long naps depend on the day but I can sometimes extend it by either swaddling, putting her in the glider, wearing her or rocking her back to sleep !

Answer

My son was like this. While i was home i would wear him. It could be that your babe is a belly sleeper. That was the case with my son. My daughter likes to nap on her belly too. Since I’m there and can keep an eye on her she sleeps that way. Worth a try if you’re comfortable with it!
