Where does your baby nap?

Our DD is 11.5 weeks old. She RARELY naps. She sleeps 12 hrs at night, waking twice to eat, so I can't complain about that.
She only gets two 30-45 min cat naps in during the day, usually in her swing or bouncy seat. I've tried putting her in her crib, but she doesn't sleep well there during the day. I just put her down for a nap in our bed, I'm hoping that she will sleep better there since she can smell DH & I.

Re: Where does your baby nap?
My DD wont nap most of the time and when she does its because she is over tired from fighting it for a week and will sleep 2-3 hrs in her carseat after a walk in stroller or ride in car. She may take little 10-20 minute cat naps here and there but fights it ALL the the time!!
I actually just changed her bedtime from 7:30pm to 6:30pm because shes not getting enough rest. I have to wake her @ 5:15am to get ready (I have to work unfortunately) and she is not happy about this. She will sleep a straight 10 hrs in her crib.
He does a 30-45 minute nap in the morning in his swing, a 2-3 hour nap in the afternoon in his crib, and another 20-30 minute nap in the evening in his swing. My DD was a big time cat napper who pretty much only napped on me or in bed with me, so he's a nice break!
Nap??
What is a nap?
They don't exist in this house.

My life has a superb cast but I can't figure out the plot.
Totally did not know this.
I just started putting LO in her crib for naps this week and it has gone surprisingly well. She would only nap on me, in the car seat if we were out, or in the Ergo, so this is huge for us. Her first nap of the day is only about 30-45 minutes, but she takes a longer one in the afternoon. I'm interested to see what happens next week when we go to the IL's for Thanksgiving.
