Nap Time & more...

Nap time at our house is a struggle right now.  It also did not help that two weeks ago she got her first cold and I had just started transitioning her from her napper to the crib.  So when she got sick, the best thing for a baby is to keep them elevated when sleeping, because of their tiny airways have to stay clear & all the congestion does not help that.  So we went back to the napper and now I am trying to re-introduce her to the crib.  Also I was a rocker, meaning I loved rocking her to sleep and now I am paying the price.  :(
I am trying to let her put herself to sleep in her crib and she is fighting it.  She is putting up one heck of a fight, I mean crying for almost an hour straight.  Mind you I go in there every 15-20 minutes to see if she is wet and to give her a pacifier.  But I do not make eye contact, mostly because she would see the tears in my eyes and because when I see the tears in her eyes I want to pick her and never let go!
Now comes to our first night of putting her in the crib for a full night of it.  I think I may start that in two days once she grows a little more accustomed to her crib.
Please pray that I continue to have strength because I could use some extra!
