I am so excited! For the last several weeks, Parker would only nap if I was holding him, and the longest he would sleep was 20-30 minutes. He used to take 2 1 1/2 hour naps. Yesterday he only took 2 10 minute naps. He needs more sleep!!! I talked to the Dr about it and he recommended essentially swaddling him and putting a large heavy pillow over his midsection. I also downloaded some meditation/white noise with water and birds. He just slept for almost an hour. His eyes even fluttered open a couple of times and he went back to sleep. This is HUGE!!!
