Some toddlers do not require a lot of sleep and begin to cut back on daytime sleeping early on. Regardless of how long or short a daytime nap is, a mom still has lots she wanted to get done and didn't when baby wakes.

I would like free time during my daughters nap times but she seems to power naps unless I am with her. She will nap in the car, in her car seat for two plus hours. I still nurse her to sleep and that is not a problem. I am not sure where to start. Thank you for your time. Nichole and Lily 14months I struggling with co-sleeping at nap time.

They can accept one system for daytime naps while they do another when it's dark. Using the light difference as part of the explanation is key.

I am trying to transition my 1 year old to her own room and will be taking out the crib and putting a mattress on the floor tomorrow. "Crying it out" is not working at all and I must trust my gut on this issue. I was hoping to get your and Dr. Gordon's input on this issue: what do I do with naptime? Thanks, Amy Dear Cassi,
