For us, we started the transition at about 7.5 months but we kept going back and forth between 2 and 3 until she turned 9 months of age.</p> <p>Here's a great sleep chart that gives you recommended sleep/wake times at various ages, sample schedules, and average transition ages: <a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/11GHo4keUb2TVJUlSL1kD6HQcEgaNFBmzoQoOzcpcyas/edit?hl=en&#038;authkey=CPXE1bsO&#038;pli=1#" rel="nofollow">https://docs.google.com/document/d/11GHo4keUb2TVJUlSL1kD6HQcEgaNFBmzoQoOzcpcyas/edit?hl=en&#038;authkey=CPXE1bsO&#038;pli=1#</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-baby-drop-their-naps#post-3004 Sat, 08 Oct 2011 10:53:36 +0000 ohapostrophe 3004@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My baby is six months old and takes either 2 or 3 naps a day. I've read that most babies drop the 3rd nap around now and wondering if others found that to be the case. We don't have him on a strict schedule right now but are starting to work towards one. </p>
