He usually tends to play around in his crib if I put him down too early though. We shall see! =P </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/need-to-be-somewhere-mid-morning-cut-los-sleep-short-or-morning-nap-short#post-900461 Tue, 02 Jul 2013 08:20:40 +0000 regberadaisy 900461@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@cranberryapple: yup. My LO usually takes her first nap on the weekends anywhere between 8:30-9:30 depending on her mood. So if I need to be somewhere then I will put her down at 8:30 for her nap. In your case I might try 9:00. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/need-to-be-somewhere-mid-morning-cut-los-sleep-short-or-morning-nap-short#post-900457 Tue, 02 Jul 2013 08:18:47 +0000 cranberryapple 900457@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@regberadaisy: Oh, you mean like put him down for his nap earlier? I can certainly try! There aren't many places we need to be so we've rarely cut any sleeping short, so I forget how he is afterwards. I do know when I wake him up, he is cranky/cry-y at that very moment. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/need-to-be-somewhere-mid-morning-cut-los-sleep-short-or-morning-nap-short#post-900449 Tue, 02 Jul 2013 08:17:24 +0000 Weagle 900449@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would do the same as @regberadaisy:. LO is one that needs to wake up on her own terms... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/need-to-be-somewhere-mid-morning-cut-los-sleep-short-or-morning-nap-short#post-900445 Tue, 02 Jul 2013 08:15:37 +0000 regberadaisy 900445@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@cranberryapple: Can you put him down a little earlier? That's what I usually do if we need to be out by X time before she generally wakes up. I find if I cut her morning nap short she is cranky the rest of the day! But that's just my LO. ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/need-to-be-somewhere-mid-morning-cut-los-sleep-short-or-morning-nap-short#post-900432 Tue, 02 Jul 2013 08:12:13 +0000 cranberryapple 900432@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@regberadaisy: He usually naps for 1.5 hours. :) He has been doing some two hour naps lately too in the morning, but then skipping his second nap entirely for the past two days. Weird.</p> <p>@MsLipGloss: Ooooh, this sounds good. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/need-to-be-somewhere-mid-morning-cut-los-sleep-short-or-morning-nap-short#post-900409 Tue, 02 Jul 2013 08:07:51 +0000 MsLipGloss 900409@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would probably opt to cut his nap short . . . you can always adjust the other naps during the day to compensate (move them up a bit . . . or move up bed time a bit). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/need-to-be-somewhere-mid-morning-cut-los-sleep-short-or-morning-nap-short#post-900406 Tue, 02 Jul 2013 08:06:19 +0000 regberadaisy 900406@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>How long does he usually nap for? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/need-to-be-somewhere-mid-morning-cut-los-sleep-short-or-morning-nap-short#post-900400 Tue, 02 Jul 2013 08:05:16 +0000 cranberryapple 900400@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So, we need to be out the door at 10:30AM, and LO normally wakes up at 7, which means his morning nap starts around 9:30-ish. To accommodate for this outing, should I wake him up earlier from his night sleep or cut his morning nap short? So confuzzled! </p>
