LO took 2 naps today - 9-9:40am & 12-3pm. She has usually been taking two 2-hr naps with about 2.5 hrs between so her last nap is usually over at 4:30-5 & bedtime is at 7-7:30. This weird nap today meant if she had a 3rd nap it would be way too late so I elected for early bedtime at 6pm.

Well, it's not working out so hot. Girlfriend is exhausted but fighting it tooth & nail. I wish I had woken her up from that monster nap so she could have had a third nap at a decent time.

What do you do when a nap is too early to make it to bedtime but not early enough for another nap? I am rocking her right now which kind of sucks because without fail she has a bad night if she doesn't fall asleep on her own in the crib.
