my daughter is 3 months and won't go to sleep on her back except at night, and i have to hold her till she falls asleep most of the time. today i was completely drained with her crying because she was tired and wouldn't sleep. she fell asleep on my chest toward me and woke up when i laid her on her back, so i held her till she fell asleep again, and laid her on her belly on the couch (not on a blanket because i didn't want her to grab the blanket in her sleep and pull it to her face, i can see her nose has room to breath and her mouth is also open). is it ok at 3 months to let her sleep that way at naptime? she holds her head up very well when laid on her belly when she is awake, but i worry about sids. should i just learn to live with holding her through naptime? i don't believe in crying it out, i think it is horrible and can't let her cry herself to sleep.
