Someone tell me how to make a 5 month old lay down for an afternoon nap when she refuses to sleep. I am exhausted.

I keep getting up to check on her, which means I've been getting no sleep of my own, because I spend hours holding her, and then she falls asleep in my arms but as soon as I put her back in her crib she starts wailing again.

I need. this. to stop.

I'm about to start pulling out my hair.

Someone help.

Oh, Kalista! You can't run to her every time she begins to whimper! I know it's hard, it's terrible when I'm babysitting my niece and nephews, but you have to let them learn how to fall back asleep on her own.

Soon she'll get into a routine. When you do go and get her, make sure not to stimulate her too much (with lights or noises), it will only make Astrid think it's time to get up and play with mummy.
