hey cat_tail,
i had the same problem with my son - must carry + walk walk, then he sleep... maybe it's a phase? i had to do it *everytime* before he'd sleep... now when it's about time for nap, i'll put him down with the mobile and he'll just fall asleep on his own... of cos there're times when he's just plain fussy, then bo bian, carry for a while...
or maybe she's just not ready for a nap yet? then chit chat or sing song with her for a while - when she starts to yawn then put her down? just my $0.02 worth...
