After all my blog posts in the past about my efforts to get Erin to take her naps in the crib, I think I forgot to mention that we have conquered the problem! I think it's been about two weeks now that she has taken 90% of her naps in the crib. Yay!
For any moms out there that have the same problem, I'll share the advice I got from someone else.
In my attempts, I was sitting with her in the rocking chair for a few minutes before putting her down. I'd wait until she was drifting off. I was told by another mom to skip that step and just put her down without holding her first.
It worked from the first time and it kept working. There have been only a few exceptions in the past couple weeks. I may still get 10 minutes of crying, but never 40 min. to an hour like before.
