I just made my daughter’s “nest” for her nap time and it occurred to me that most moms might not do this. It’s a way my children sleep better during naptimes.  To make a nest we use 4 light-weight blankets. One is on each side of her – sort of bunched up and touching her. One is under her feet and then one is across her.
We did this when she was little when she was developmentally delayed but then stopped as she developed and grew. But now I find myself doing it for her again. It helps her stay in her bed and I think it also comforts her. Does anyone else do this with their kids?
I did that for the kids when they were infants, but as they grew some, I stopped… Also, my kids outgrew naps by the time they were 2-ish. (Because they would sleep 12+ hours at night)
