will only nap in the car....ideas anyone??

[Softy]

Not sure I can suggest anything new but maybe rocking to sleep and then putting in the cot??? My little 'angel' is 15 months and is just starting to fight the day nap, used to be no worries just cuddle and rock for 5-10 mins and she'd be asleep. Now she plays up wants to go in the cot but runs around and plays, so I say ok mummy go and walk out...she cries, I come back in 1-2 mins, this goes on a few times then I put on my 'stern' mummy voice take her out of the cot, rock and bounce her and she goes off to sleep and then I put her in the cot. She is getting blooming heavy though so am not looking forward to when this doesn't work. Good luck, let me know how you go

thanks for all your suggestions.

so we just moved in with the folks so we can save some money while our house is being built. DS has decided that napping in the cot ain't so bad after all - who knows why??

thanks for all the support and ideas everyone
