I go off when I *think* he woke up, which is generally 15 minutes before I actually go get him. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nap-timing#post-1941120 Wed, 12 Nov 2014 13:08:34 +0000 edelweiss 1941120@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i would try to measure from when he actually woke up, but as long as you have a general idea then you can watch for his sleepy cues or just put him down when you feel like it's the right time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nap-timing#post-1941099 Wed, 12 Nov 2014 12:59:08 +0000 BabyTsMom 1941099@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So I realize this may be nitpicking, but I often have no idea when exactly my LO woke up. A lot of the time he wakes up and just hangs out quietly in his crib until I get him. So.... do you time the first nap of the day according to when you *think* LO woke up, or when you got LO up for the day? Sometimes I'll leave LO in there for 15-30 minutes if he seems perfectly content. But like I said, I really have no idea when he really woke up!<br /> (Not sure it matters, but he's almost 6 months, and his awake time is about 2 hrs). </p>
