[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you can't afford paid help, do you have a friend or neighbor who might assist? I have left my kid to nap at a friend's house while I went to the dentist, and I would happily let someone else's baby nap in my house if I was going to be home anyway.[/quote]

I've considered this but it wouldn't really work because she is already struggling so much then I add a stranger and a strange environment to the mix? Plus covid? And she had those 20 min cat naps in the car so even if I had a bed I could leave her in during the midday pick up she's not really tired enough to go to sleep before I need to leave.

The timing of it all is just too challenging. When she goes down to one nap a day this won't be an issue any longer. Of course, that'll be around the time school lets out anyway. [/quote]

You’re being a very selfish mom!  Your child would be so much better off in a place where she isn’t spending so much time in a car and can get the sleep she needs for her age.  It’s like you’re coming up with every excuse in the book to why you can’t make any hard choices to help your baby get the sleep she deserves.  You’re spending hours a day in a car with a 7 month old not getting decent naps and you’re wondering why the baby won’t sleep at night?  But you refuse to consider any sort of daytime care?  Now you’re even claiming you can’t because of covid?

Please make a change so your baby can nap and then do CIO ASAP.  Your baby needs to sleep.

Also make sure you’re on birth control so you don’t end up doing this to another young baby.  It’s cruel.  [/quote]

The hypocrisy in your statements is astounding.

You do realize there are plenty of babies who spend 2 hours in the car every day? Rural communities, those with commutes that only have access to workplace care, etc.

OP ignore the shamers please.[/quote]
