Nathan has not been himself the past couple of days. He has been going without naps, or he will take a 10 minute nap and wake up screaming. Today was the same. I had him sitting in the chair that I feed him in, and I was feeding him some peas. I heard Morgan wake up from her nap, so I went to get her out of her crib- When I came back to Nathan, this is how he was!! Don't let him fool you- he slept for a total of 30 minutes today- Including the 10 minute nap he got on the couch. When I picked him up from the couch and laid him down in his crib, he woke back up screaming... But, I couldn't leave him on the couch- Not with the other 3 kids running around that I have to take care of- So, what was I supposed to do? Advise from parenting experts needed- He sleeps with his mom in her bed when he is at home, and so, he doesn't care to sleep in his crib when he is here. I have thought about letting him sleep where he is comfortable, but it can't be somewhere dangerous like the bed because he is definitely mobile... So, the floor? And then, when he wakes up, how will I know he is still safe and not getting into things? He REALLY needs some sleep, and I need a break, too.

I advise babywearing. Maggie likes to cuddle when she sleeps and i'd never get to do ANYTHING if I had to lay with her every time. She takes most naps when we're up adn doing things in the sling. I've heard Mai Tai wraps are very sleepable, too.
