I find DD2 will sometimes self settle, problem is I never know which nap it will be, I just try to go by her signs.
Well that's the truth! Yesterday afternoon he decided self settling wasn't so great afterall and was upset when I put him down... then when I picked him up he was calm straight away and went to sleep. So I guess it's a sometimes thing- which doesn't bother me at all because I feel like I understand the options we have now and I'm reading his cues better so we're both calmer and happier
Last night he actually went to sleep feeding which he normally doesn't do and then slept for 5 hours!!!! I'm a new woman today let me tell you
