Re: do you nap when lo naps?

  • Rarely.  I need to use that time to get other stuff done!

  • I have a really hard time napping. And since DS's naps usually last 30-45 minutes by the time I feel at all drowsy he is usually up again. Plus DD no longer naps. I just drink a lot of coffee.

    I never have. If we are at home, I use that time to get housework done. (or chat on the Bump, like I am now)

  • I didn't used to.  But I started to recently.
  • No that's my time to get stuff done
  • Pretty much never...both my kids never nap at the same time and my house is a wreck!

    Nope, I try to get things done around the house or work out while she naps. She sleeps pretty well at night though, so I'm usually not too tired.

  • Sometimes - It takes me a while to fall asleep though, so I never get a long nap.  half hour here or there maybe. 

    i would kill for a 2 hour nap right now!

  • I wish I could.  DS still naps on me and I try to sleep sometimes, but he moves around a lot, so I'm afraid of dropping him.  I just lay there with my eyes closed which helps a little with the tiredness.  I got him to once co-sleep in bed with me for a nap and it was so refreshing.  One day he will nap not on me and I'm so taking a nap too!  Screw housework and exercise.

  • Sometimes I do.  Usually they get up to eat between 5 and 7am and if it's 5am then I go back to bed for a bit after feeding and pumping.  Also if one is fussy in the afternoon I'll lay down with him.  Of course that all ends next week when I go back to work, but for now it works.

  • I should but rarely do.  I try to get stuff done around the house at that time but somehow my house is still a disaster.  I guess I should just give up and nap!
  • I think I've only done that a few times since she was born. I usually have tons of other stuff to take care of during that time.
