Nap training?

How long after sleep training did your LOs naps get better? Or did you have to nap train as well. We did the Ferber method about 2 weeks ago and while night sleep is better the daytime sleep has gotten much worse. How long before naps improve or should I start nap training?

    We did Ferber with night and naps all at once about 2 months ago (LO will be 8 months soon).  But I will tell you that my LO still fights naps to this day and there are still times when I've had to abort the nap because he cried for 30min straight.  Now, these times are getting much more rare.  But naps have always been tough and it took a long time for me to figure out a better time to put him down.  The "drowsy when awake" does not work for my LO nap times.  I have to put him down when he is essentially overtired so the only thing he CAN do is CIO for couple minutes before he naps.

    Every baby us different and you just have to figure out what is best for your baby.  But I do think nap training would be helpful.  Good luck!
