My 7 month old daughter cannot fall asleep on her own
If I can remember, at 7 months, they are just learning to crawl. You may want to tire her out a little more than you have been before this nap. I would put her on her tummy more, and have her reach a toy from your 3 yr old to include him, or put her in her exersaucer for more time, or a kicker toy. Just tire her more before the nap. Also, for my girls, I have always put on lullabye music to drown out the rest of the house noises and put it on repeat, made the room dark with dark curtains, and my monitor displayed a light show in the ceiling. For my first child we had a "momma bear" in her crib that when turned on sounded like my heartbeat. . And to make things more interesting, they usually do drop the morning nap at about 1 year and go to only one nap. Good luck. Hope this helps
