When my DD first cams home, she was sleeping really well then after a few days, she just stopped sleeping in the day time. I could see no reasons for it and tried everything to get her to sleep somewhere other than on me. I would look for the frowning, jerky movements, grizzling...and would wrap her pat her and get her to bed then 'ping'! her eyes were open and she was looking about again. It is only now that she has begun to sleep better in the day time. It started out with 45mins a few times a day then slowly increased to a few more times a day, to longer stretches until now where we are at about 2-3 45 min sleeps and 1 2 or so hour sleep in the day. She sleeps well at night though so I am not complaining. I just persevered with the same routine, with the occaisional sleep where she would stay on me or I would cosleep with her in the daytime. The only thing I could probably reccommend is to make a routine and stay with it, especially at night, like cuddles, wrap, bed in the day; and bath, cuddles, wrap, bed at night.
