[quote=Anonymous]I'm a hardass about baby sleep, but bad naps are unfortunately normal at this age. My daughter was an amazing sleeper (8h at night at 6 weeks, fully through the night at 3 months) but not for naps until later. I did Ferber-style training for naps at 6mos and just kept at it. I rarely ever held her for naps but family members occasionally did. It didn't ruin anything. My one piece of advice - don't be too afraid of inflexibility. Napping in a dark quiet room can do more than you might think. I am (was, sigh) a big traveler and didn't want a finicky sleeper dependent on blackout blinds, but heavy blinds and darkness work wonders, and it didn't really make her dependent on those things. I never used a noise machine though, bridge too far IMO[/quote]
