Balmaingal - I haven't tried the pram but she's never wanted to sleep in the pram even when tiny. She refuses to nap in it if we're at the shops too... I suppose it wouldn't hurt to try, but usually if I lay her down in the pram when we're out to encourage a sleep she just cries and tries to sit up.

Sloane - I try to make her arvo one earlier, but although she's tired I can't get her down until way after her arvo nap used to be! Not sure how close to walking she is... she can walk holding one of my hands next to me and can balance for short periods of time... is a pro at her push-walker and "cruises" around alot on the furniture.
