And, we have a winner! At least for a few days. We dropped a nap last week, and it's been amazing.
1. It takes Lily 2 minutes to fall asleep. This morning, it was seriously 1 minute. The other day, she passed out in 10 seconds. No more fighting for 40 minutes. I don't know what in the world was wrong with me!
2. She is awake longer, so we can walk in the morning! This has been great. When we have about an hour or less left to the ideal nap time, or when Lily starts to get super fussy, we just put her and a toy in the stroller and head down the street. She doesn't make a peep, because she's so busy taking in the sights and sounds. Because of her nap schedule, my work schedule, and the weather, we hadn't really gotten to walk like I thought I would walk with my baby.
3. She's gotten less cranky as she's gotten used to the new schedule. Today was glorious. We had so much fun. I almost didn't think it was time to nap, but she nursed to sleep so quickly.
4. She's not constantly nursing. She's got too much to do, so she's too busy to spend the morning buried in a boob.
5. We have been able to set her down longer during her sleep time. We had to previously hold her constantly when she was sleeping.
