With the naptime strike still in full swing the compromise I've made is putting on a tv show around 3 pm. At minimum he chills out for a half hour - but usually he will fall asleep. Better than the naptime battle or the exhausted napless meltdowns. Meh.
since our daughter arrived, one thing parents have said to us over and over again is - whatever gets you through!
ReplyDeleteI call that a win. My kid won't fall asleep in front of the TV by himself. He'll rarely just sit on the couch and watch. Frustrating! Although just knowing no nap is happening and rolling with it is sometimes a lot less stressful than trying to hope or force it.
