We had a couple of bad nights bc of long late naps. Mornings I let her sleep. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-wake-lo-up-from-an-esp-long-nap#post-1155830 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 14:43:41 +0000 sslm 1155830@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At that age I woke her after 3 hours bc I wanted to nurse her! Those 3 hour naps were so rare though... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-wake-lo-up-from-an-esp-long-nap#post-1155820 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 14:40:57 +0000 Trailmix 1155820@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>3 hours is my limit, otherwise I fear for bedtime! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-wake-lo-up-from-an-esp-long-nap#post-1155818 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 14:40:25 +0000 bunnylove08 1155818@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I never did, my sister does because she says it messes with her LO's sleep but DD will usually go to sleep around the same time </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-wake-lo-up-from-an-esp-long-nap#post-1155815 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 14:39:37 +0000 Sammyfab 1155815@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not at that age. I would only wake him up if it had been more than 4 hours between feedings. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-wake-lo-up-from-an-esp-long-nap#post-1155801 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 14:33:43 +0000 Bao 1155801@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The only time I wake her is if it's after 5:00pm since she goes to bed at 7:30. Otherwise, no way! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-wake-lo-up-from-an-esp-long-nap#post-1155778 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 14:24:59 +0000 birdofafeather 1155778@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>at that age, i did wake her if it was more than 3:30 hours since her last feeding. i think i did that until 3 months? but it was very rare that it went that long! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-wake-lo-up-from-an-esp-long-nap#post-1155762 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 14:21:11 +0000 deerylou 1155762@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not unless it was cutting it close to her usual bedtime. However, DD loves to sleep, and would probably be fine if she had an hour between her last nap, and her full, eight hours of nighttime sleep. I wish I had her affinity for shut-eye. ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-wake-lo-up-from-an-esp-long-nap#post-1155756 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 14:19:09 +0000 Beyond2 1155756@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I occasionally do out of worry that "maybe he stopped breathing" and then I always feel bad after when he's all flustered and confused. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-wake-lo-up-from-an-esp-long-nap#post-1155754 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 14:18:15 +0000 LuLu Mom 1155754@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not unless it was evening, I figured if she was sleeping that long she needed it for a reason (and we never had issues with he waking up at night.) She loved her sleep and still does at a year! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-wake-lo-up-from-an-esp-long-nap#post-1155750 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 14:17:53 +0000 heartonastring 1155750@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, but only if it's going to make bedtime difficult. Otherwise I say let them sleep. Leaving them be is the best way for us to understand their needs and patterns. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-wake-lo-up-from-an-esp-long-nap#post-1155745 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 14:16:27 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 1155745@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>NEVERRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-wake-lo-up-from-an-esp-long-nap#post-1155720 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 14:08:45 +0000 Adira 1155720@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I almost always woke Xander up after 2 hours. We followed EASY, so I would just wake him and immediately feed him and then if he wanted to go back to sleep, I let him!</p> <p>Now that he's older (7.5 months), I'm not worried about him getting days and nights mixed up, so if he takes a long nap, I let him be. But I wake him if it's getting close to dinner just to keep him on his bedtime routine. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-wake-lo-up-from-an-esp-long-nap#post-1155709 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 14:06:27 +0000 hilsy85 1155709@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If it was past 5:30pm I might wake him...otherwise, I let him sleep! Especially at such a young age, she's probably in a growth spurt or something! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-wake-lo-up-from-an-esp-long-nap#post-1155702 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 14:05:03 +0000 Mrs Hedgehog 1155702@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When LO is taking an especially long nap, do you ever wake them up to keep them from mixing up their days/nights?</p> <p>DD is 8 weeks and has been sleeping for a few hours (3 so far) which is really unlike her. She usually is a horrible napper getting MAYBE 20 minutes at a time when I am not carrying her around. Now, I am in no shape, way or form complaining. It has been wonderful! I got a short nap, a shower, cleaned the kitchen, snuggled with my dogs who I know have been missing me, made lunch and now am on here. Uh Mazing! But I almost feel like I shouldn't let her sleep too much longer so that she wont have issues sleeping tonight. </p>
