*HUGS* i remember the shock of my husband going back to work lol! does your 3 year old go to nursery? i use the alarm on my mobile to wake me up if i nap in the afternoon. my husband sets it to go off in time for me to wake up and set off to collect my son from school. most of the time i'm awake anyway but in the early days i would fall asleep on the sofa while rocking the baby.

he's at playgroup 4 mornings a week - till thurs when they break for xmas. i will be napping as long as people take notice of the do not disturb sign on the front door (which my next door neighbours cannot read when they want to borrow stuff - all the time!). had ceasarian so cant drive yet so i get a bit extra time b4 he is dropped off just after noon. mum came this aft so i had a nap - lovely!!
we use the sleeping bags as suggested elsewhere - the ones we have are from vertbaudet (if u live near ossett in west yorkshire there is a lady on ossett market who sells all their stuff cheap - she buys bags of returns cheap - or she used to when i got these for 1st son!). they have fancy ties n the side that r meant to tie in a bow to look nice but u can tie at the front to make bag more snug.
