She will stay up the WHOLE day because I refuse to hold her or walk with her the whole time she sleeps. I'm glad I came across you post. It gives me some ideas on how to curb future sleep problems with my little one. She sleeps in her crib well at night but when she wakes up to nurse she stays in bed with me the rest of the night.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2241150764547952609.post-34848502102508521752008-01-08T11:38:00.000-05:002008-01-08T11:38:00.000-05:00Rayshma - I am sure we did too.. but there is some...Rayshma - I am sure we did too.. but there is something about kids these days..

Wel...oh preethi, this is so funny. cheers to nantu. Well i can understand your concerns. My 3 year old too moves clockwise and anticlockwise in her bed all the time. But then we have no go, she sleeps with us as the younger one sleeps in the crib.
