First Time Mom Needs Advice on Sleep and Routine

I need help! I am a first time SAHM to a 3 month old little girl. I am really confused on making a routine.

3 Month Old Will Not Take Naps in Crib

I have a 3 month old who will sleep in his crib at night but will not take a nap in his crib during the day. I have "blacked" out his room so lighting is not the issue. I'm wondering if anyone else has had this problem. He will sleep in the swing during the day or on me.
