Hard time with evening naps
My 11week old won't sleep suddenly in the crib after being soothed for his last nap. The sleep environment is the same and he gets soothed the same way for every sleep. He usually takes 4 naps in the day and they progressively get harder to put him to sleep. The fourth naps he often is skipping now because he is completely…

Darkness required for daytime naps
I was curious if it’s preferable to use a completely dark room for daytime naps? I often see it’s mentioned that complete darkness is preferable, even in the day, but I don’t understand why. Everything I’ve read says that melatonin will only increase at night so what is the benefit of using a dark room for a daytime nap.…

What is the snap on the sleeping bag for
I ask myself what this snaps for multiple times a day. Is it just decorative? Am I supposed to be snapping something onto it? Does anyone know?

2 1/2 month old stopped lifting head during tummy time
Our 2 1/2 month old girl stopped lifting her head during tummy time. We had 3 weeks of amazing results where she was holding her head up and didn’t even want to put it down and then all of a sudden the last several days she’s not lifting her head at all. Should we be concerned?? Any advice would be greatly appreciated

Daytime Naps
Hello! I’m looking for some advice/tips for my 3.5 month old and his daytime naps. At night, my son sleeps great in his crib for long durations of time. But during the day, it’s a different story. He’ll only sleep for 30 min at a time. If I’m holding him or if he’s in his lounger, he’ll sleep longer, up to 1.5-2 hours.…

My son fractured his leg and now only wants to sleep with me
Hi! My son is 11 months about to be 12 months next week and he just fractured his leg the other day after a fall from walking.

Zipadeezip sleep sack under breathing band?
Hi y’all. Is it safe to have my 4 month old in a zipadeezip sleep sack with the breathing band over the sack but still under her arms? I can’t imagine it would be able to ride up and the monitor is able to count her breaths but I’d just like to double check. She isn’t rolling yet.
