This baby would sleep all day if someone held her during her naps, but I've been fighting with her for a couple of months now to get her to nap in her crib. It has been awful. At first I let her nap with pillows on both sides of her to simulate being snuggled and I checked her often to make sure she could breath. She did okay with that, but the last couple of weeks I've taken the pillows out and she hates it. She rolls around, sticks her arm between the bars, has her face pushed against the sides. In rage she found the strength to roll over, but not sleep. I can't stand hearing her cry, so I'll go in there after ten minutes and she falls asleep the second I pick her up. Anyway, it has been crazy, but yesterday she actually fell asleep in her crib, so I was looking forward to testing her out today. However, Mikel texted me during his lunch and we talked on gmail, so I set Raven down on her activity mat. After his lunch I go to pick her up and put her in her crib and she is out like a light.


It's probably bad, but I just let her be. She slept a half hour before the crinkle of freddy the fireflies wings woke her up.

That little stinker is so stinkin adorable!!! Love her!! You are not bad for just letting her be....that is exactly what I would do!! If they are sleeping, just let them be.....She loves her freddy the firefly! Too bad he is sooo noisy. We have to find her something quiet to sleep with! :)
I can tell by that picture she is going to be a tummy sleeper. That was Lera. She was swaddled until about 5.5-6 months. Then, she could roll over and get out of her blanket too easily. So, she would only fall asleep on her tummy after that. Actually, Chess did, too. Chess put her face almost straight down, which scared me to death. Lera always put hers to the side - hopefully Raven will too. She'll be a much better sleeper on the tummy.
