    Do you move bubs when they fall asleep

    Ok, we have been struggling to get day sleeps. But the last couple of days DD has been playing happily, no signs what so ever of being sleepy then she rolls her self over onto her tummy and goes to sleep. Just now it was on her activity matt in the middle of the lounge beside where I was wrapping presents. I tried to move her to her bed but she just cries and won't resettle.

    So, do you leave your baby where he/she has fallen asleep or move them to their place of sleeping?

    If it was a day sleep and she wont settle after you stir her, personally I would let her be. For the past few weeks DD will only go to sleep in her pram, we put her in her cot after about 2 hours once she is in a deeper sleep otherwise she will wake up and not go back to sleep if we try to move her strait away. So cute your little Bub crashing out on the floor

    Yep, I agree with the 'let sleeping babies lie'- wherever they are!

    My little one falls asleep during the day on her activity mat as well, she will be playing happily and then fall asleep when she is tired. I just leave her be as she must be happy to sleep there.

    Day sleeps, yeah, I leave her go wherever she falls lol At night though she falls asleep in bed while I give her a bottle, then I pop her in her cot a few hours later when I go to bed. She sometimes wakes up and when she realises it's dark, she just goes back to sleep, but during the day I know she'd be like, 'Ooh, playtime' haha.

    OMG, yes, leave her!!! I have a DD who struggles with day sleeps and I would give anything to see her just nod off on her play mat or in her rocker. It's never happened and probably never will!

    Yep, let sleeping babies lie
