[quote=Anonymous]Swaddle him for naps (if he's swaddled for night sleep). Also try getting him down for his first morning nap like an hour or less after he wakes up for the day. Oddly enough when they're overtired / awake too long they tend to wake up after a shorter time. If he sleeps on your chest will he sleep in a carrier? I would put DD in a carrier and go for an hour walk (granted I had a spring baby, but maybe you can find an indoor place to do this). Being exhausted myself I hated doing that morning walk, but if she got a good morning nap the rest of the day's naps would be better too and I could catch some rest during one of those. Generally though, for a baby that little it is kinda par for the course. Good luck![/quote]
