Mobile.....Different Baby at Daycare
Is anybody else's baby totally different at daycare? DD has put herself to sleep for every nap since day 1 at daycare when put down awake withib minutes. She also sleeps anywhere from 13 hours for her naps. At home I cannot put her down drowsy let alone awake without her screaming, even though I know she is tired. The maximum she will sleep at home for a nap is 40 minutes. I call her caretaker a miracle worker. I know babies are usually different for others, but I never thought she would be this different! I am glad she is so good and easy for daycare, but wish it would carry over to home!

lurker chiming in:
my LO does the exact same thing. Perfect napping and feeding schedule for the sitter, pretty much chaos for me. I think it has to do with bottle feeding versus breast feeding. I think he fills up more at a given feeding with a bottle, then naps better with a fuller tummy? verus 'snacking' on me all damn day and getting hungry every hour.
