Much to my chagrin, my 7 week old baby will has recently decided to fight sleep at home, but will sleep if I wear him on a walk, which is often my last resort, even during this hot summer.Meghanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08366931718780841876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4845384595164369254.post-90999758790167529382012-06-18T22:08:25.044-06:002012-06-18T22:08:25.044-06:00Oh, you poor thing!

I don&#...Oh, you poor thing! That sounds horrible!<br /><br />I don't know. I have three kids and each one has been different on this issue. My first was a lot like how Alice sounds- an intense baby, not the best sleeper, and easily over-stimulated. He used to scream and scream when we put him in the carseat and did not particularly like the stroller either. <br /><br />If it's any consolation, he is still an intense kid, but so smart and he sleeps like a ROCK at night. It took about a year for him to be a solid sleeper and not fight the carseat. In the grand scheme of things, it will seem like no time at all. <br /><br />But I hope for your sanity that it passes quickly!Lauren Knighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07358496490976869347noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4845384595164369254.post-40226942381599333322012-06-18T19:13:52.275-06:002012-06-18T19:13:52.275-06:00I'm with Grandma Julie on this one... everythi...I'm with Grandma Julie on this one... everything just changes and cycles again and again.

Squeaky toy, jingly keys, when you were a bit older, I gave you a bit of water in a bottle, then from a sippy cup. Hang in there. Hopefully it's just a short term situation. xoxoGrandma Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07320163238589678923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4845384595164369254.post-49404030359095304442012-06-18T13:11:07.963-06:002012-06-18T13:11:07.963-06:00Yikes.

If you have a cover that can keep out all the extra stuff to look at and noises then it keeps them less likely to fight sleep. Adriana is almost 10 months and fights naps and the only way to calm her sometimes is put her in the center of a dark blanket pull the corners and sides and rock her back and forth. Strange, maybe, but I got the tip a while ago from a friend who works with kids.the de Roda Family!https://www.blogger.com/profile/12444106202553049652noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4845384595164369254.post-32066283884619701582012-06-18T11:48:55.445-06:002012-06-18T11:48:55.445-06:00Nolan has started to hate the car seat.

I have found the key is to make trips at the right times. <br /><br />I know that sounds silly - I have thought myself "I am not going to be a slave to naptime"! Then a few sleepless nights for me because naps were bad=me a slave to nap time.<br /><br />So make sure she isn't overtired when you go out. Easier said then done, but it will help. <br /><br />I also have a favorite toy of Nolans that I hide and only pull out when he is in the car. I also spend a lot of time in the backseat with him, while Jason drives. Obviously this is only on the weekends.<br /><br />good luck!Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17343287800025022075noreply@blogger.com
