I agree...the caps lock is stuck and the period key must be missing
***You're right, this isn't an "english room." But it's alot easier to read your question when it doesn't all run together and words are spelled correctly.

As a mother of 2 ( a 10yr old boy and a 2yr old girl), I highly suggest that you do not continue to lay with her until she falls asleep unless you are prepared to do this until she grows out of naps!! The next thing you know she won't sleep for naps or bedtime without you!!
When a baby learns a new trick, ie. walking, standing, putting toes in mouth, etc. They want to keep practicing. They are excited about their new adventure.
My suggestion would be to let her cry it out. I KNOW ITS HARD. TRUST ME!! Eventually she will learn that she needs to lay down and sleep. And yes, she will learn how to sit/lay from a standing position. Probably very soon!
Right now she has learned that everytime she cries when put in her crib, Mommy will come and lay with her. Who wouldn't want that?!
Hope I helped.
Good luck!!

She's just a baby and baby's grow and change. I'm sure this is just a phase that she'll grow out of. Be patient with her she'll soon get the hang of sitting down then laying down on her own. Also maybe she just needs a little more mommy time. If holding her will put her to sleep then go for it, she's only going to be this little once. Enjoy it while you can.
Good Luck!

Just let her cry it out. She will learn how to lay down after standing up. Went thru it with both my boys. It is heart aching to lisen to them cry, but they will settle down. Just make sure she is not hurt, tell her it is nap time, try to lay her down. If she stands up, just let her be, she will get the hang of it. Good Luck.

i had this happen when our son was a baby and he would do exactly the same thing we just let him figure out how to lay down himself even if that means crying to figure it out. My public health nurse that was coming in to help us out said its good for kids to find their own comfort zones even if that means crying. I let my son cry for 2hrs until he figured out how to just lay down and go to sleep. I know it sounds cruel but you can't jump every time they cry and sometimes they just don't want naps at that very moment.

Dear sweet jesus.
Who let you have a kid?! When mothers type like 8 year-olds on the internet, it means the end of the world.
