Moving on from contact naps doesn’t mean losing the closeness; it just means finding a balance that works for both of you. Your baby isn’t being ‘difficult, they’re just used to their favorite place. If you’re ready to shift naps into the cot, start small, stay consistent, and remember, this is a skill you teach together, not something your baby has to figure out alone. You’re doing amazing. Truly, you need two hands. Back naps are getting shorter. It has started to impact the night. Keep away from windows on the track, and use a consistent nap routine, keep the room dark, use white noise, warm the cot with a heat pack, and remove it before the baby goes in.
