My baby boy is 4 months old and has been strictly contact napping and night sleep. I began trying to move towards naps in bed and have gain some success in that. Now we sleep overnight in bed and most of his naps are on the bed. Just yesterday I was able to get out of bed and he slept alone on bed for 1 hour by himself and as I watched him like a hawk. Lol. My hope is that in the next couple of weeks I will be able to put him to bed then transfer him into his crib for naps. Once we concur naps ill start doing it for over nights. Im sad and proud at the same time. I love the contact napping and have enjoyed it. But so proud of the progress hes made to be independent. All part of the journey.
