With my worst napper I worked out the trick of getting them to fall asleep on my shoulder, then a slow smooth tilt forward down to the crib mattress.
Not a smooth enough motion and… KABOOM
My arm is too big, every time I put mine down I have to figure out how to extricate my big ol' ham hawks from beneath the baby lest their head fall five feet to the mattress.
