Sleep help, please :)

My baby girl will be 3 months old this Friday and I'm having a hard time with sleep. She has to be held to get her to sleep and as soon as I lay her down she wakes up. Any tips? I've tried waiting until she's in a deep sleep, which works at night time but not during the day for naps. I have to find a solution. I love holding her, but that's all I get done all day!

do you swaddle her? we had this problem for awhile and swadding/swing helped. he always slept well at night, but naps were a big problem. now he usually goes 45 min each with one longer 2-4 hour nap. i swaddle, rock him, then put him in the swing. lately i've been putting him down for some naps in the crib, but he never goes more than 45 min there and it's sometimes closer to 30.
