Gone are the days...

What has happened to my wonderful napper? I know Grant looks so peaceful here but getting him to this point....AAAHHHHH! He has been sick and has molars coming in but only taking a 30 to 45 minute nap, seriously? A few weeks ago he would at least go back to sleep on my chest then I could put him on the couch but now he just screams for over 30 minutes and throws everything out of his crib.


I don't know what to do anymore. I wish he would go back to sleeping like this...in his crib. Any advice?

Yikes. That is too bad. I don't know what to tell you because I don't know anything older babies and how they should sleep. I did read that kids can rebel in their sleep for periods of time and you just have to get through it. I am sure you are handling it perfectly because you are super mom!!

Good luck with that one... those teefers are rough on them.

Jaci! I have nothing for you, since Myles still hasn't slept every night for a full month. I am sure it is so frustrating for you! Have you tried motrin? That can work wonders when they are teething and in to much pain to relax. Good Luck!

Sorry, I haven't had to deal with that yet. So my only advice is the book Happy Baby, Healthy Sleep Habits??? Maybe there's something in there about the terrible molar stage. Good luck. :( Motrin sounds like a great idea though. Let me know what you do so I can be prepared!
