Im trying to get my LO to fall asleep on his own in his crib for naps. He is used to being rocked and held for his naps. I've done ferber for bedtime and have a solid bed time routine of bath, lotion, pjs, nurse, bed. But because the last thing i do is nurse i'm the only one that can put him to bed. So i dont want to nurse him right before he goes down for a nap.
What do you do before nap time? Do you put them down when they are wide awake or sleepy?

We did ferber for night and I moved nursing to earlier in our routine so he doesn't associate that with the last thing he does before sleep. Our night routine is:
Nurse, Bath, Lotion & PJs, Story, (ipod) Rock til drowsy and sleep
Nap routine is: Sleepsack, (ipod) Rock til drowsy and sleep
We play white noise for both and when I turn on his ipod he knows by the sound sleep is next.
