I have read that if your baby is pretty textbook, they might start to show sleepy signs at their "normal" nap time because they are conditioned to. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/awake-time-at-65-months#post-764908 Tue, 07 May 2013 08:30:19 +0000 winniebee 764908@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@hilsy85: I would say around 6.5 months is when at daycare he started refusing the late afternoon catnap. So, we went with it. He was usually up from his last nap there at 3/3:30 and would go to bed at 7. At home, we could get him to take a catnap in the late p.m. to get him through til bedtime (and usually would be 3 hours before bed). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/awake-time-at-65-months#post-764892 Tue, 07 May 2013 08:27:34 +0000 hilsy85 764892@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@winniebee: we usually do 2.5 hours before bed, 3 at the most...we've never attempted 4!</p> <p>@NovBaby1112: interesting. He made a leap from 45 min/1 hour to 1hr45 min/2 hour pretty quickly so maybe he'll jump to a longer time soon. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/awake-time-at-65-months#post-764891 Tue, 07 May 2013 08:27:31 +0000 mrsjyw 764891@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS is 5.5 months and goes 2 hours. His longest awake time is usually between his last nap and bedtime and that's been sometimes 3, usually 2.5 though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/awake-time-at-65-months#post-764879 Tue, 07 May 2013 08:24:02 +0000 NovBaby1112 764879@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>my LO seems to have higher than normal awake times for her age (almost 6 months). She can usually go 2.5- 3 hrs in between naps. She made this hugeee jump from 1.45/2 hrs in just a few weeks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/awake-time-at-65-months#post-764859 Tue, 07 May 2013 08:16:28 +0000 winniebee 764859@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think we were 2 hours at that age between naps and a longer awake stretch (4 hrs) before bed! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/awake-time-at-65-months#post-764785 Tue, 07 May 2013 07:19:24 +0000 hilsy85 764785@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What was/is your LO's awake time at around 6-7 months? LO usually can only go 2 hours, 2hours 15 min max without melting down, and he's giving me tired cues (rubbing eyes, yawning) around 1 hour 45 min usually. This seems like a really short awake window at his age (6.5 months). </p> <p>Could it be due to his crappy overnight sleep (multiple wakeups over a 12 hour period)? He does nap really well most of the time (1-2 long naps of 1hour+ and a short afternoon nap...so I would think that would prevent him from being so tired during the day? </p>
