Sleeps in my arms not in cot

[sophiesmum23]

Hi, my 3 1/2 month old DD sleeps great at night but when it comes to the daytime naps it is frustrating...

She will have a nap in her cot in the morning but will only have 45mins tops. I try and re-settle her but she won't go back to sleep.

She then will have a sleep on me and she can sleep for 1 1/2 hours in my arms..

How can i get her to sleep longer in her cot past the first sleep cycle???

Any advice will be great
Thank you

My 9 week old DD is similar. She is a brilliant night sleeper, but has her day sleeps in the sling.

At the moment it's fine, although it does sometimes get in the way of playing with DS. I plan to tackle it and get her to sleep in her cot during the day when she gets too heavy for me to lug around all day.

Do you have a sling? It might make the sleeping on you bit easier.
