I have a 4 1/2 month old baby who firmly believes in taking 10 to 20 min cat naps all day and night. I've tried everything i can think to change her sleeping habits. any ideas on how to get her to sleep longer at night and stay awake longer during the day?

Wow that's rough! My little girl was a cat napper during the day, but slept at night. Have you tried keeping a sleep journal for her? I know it's one more thing to do, but it could help you to recognize patterns and other little things that help her sleep longer. I'd also talk to your pediatrician, he may be able to help you see something you wouldn't normally look for. I wish I could be more help. I pray your little girl (not to mention you) gets some sleep soon- for everyones sake. Good luck!
