I'm trying everything to get him to nap. At arround 2 and half months I was holding him when he napped sometimes and at arround 3 months i relized I couldn't put him down with out him waking up because I wasn't holding him. I needed a change I can't hold him to nap 3 times a day for 2 hrs I need to eat drink and u know go to the bathroom every now and then. I also nurse him to sleep mostly at night trying to stop durring the day. So normally I bring him in his room put a sleep blanket on Rock'em until his eyes closed and try to put him down he normally wakes up crying and I'll leave him there for a few minutes cuz I don't want to rush in there every time he cries, so I end up going back in and doing the same thing over and over I feel like he knows that I'm going to come in there and rock him because as soon as I pick him up his eyes shut again and then as soon as I put him down his eyes open again. If he does fall asleep it's normally 30 minutes or less sometimes I get lucky and it's an hour and a half. I've tried everything and I've now gone to the cry-it-out where I go in every once in awhile to call him back down and put him down again until he falls asleep I don't know what else to do I really like some advice it's stressing me out and him I could tell he's tired and I'm trying everything to get him to sleep but he just won't I feel like he's learning everything. He knows that he wants to be held to sleep he knows I'm going to come in there if he cries enough.
