My LO is about 6.5 months old and for a couple of weeks around 6 months she was taking like 5-6 naps a day. Now she seems to do anywhere from 2-4 depending on the length of the nap and what we've done that day. It doesn't affect her sleep at night when she naps more and she still seems happy though. I assumed maybe it was a growth spurt? Also, after all the naps, she's been coming through with milestones so I figured she may have been tired from trying to figure those out too.

today none. usually she takes 1.
ds sleeps around the clock still.

I was going to write this same post! They still take 4 naps a day at 6 months...anywhere between 30 and 90 min.

My kids still kind of prefer a 90min awake cycle, but i'm trying to encourage them to extend to 2 hrs or so, and then 3 hours before bed. I find if they stay awake longer, they will usually extend some naps, but not all, and they can fall asleep faster. I often have to actively try to keep them awake by going shopping or using the jumper at home. For the last 3 hr wake time it can be a job, but it's usually only like 15 minof getting them over the hump,and then they are good til bedtime.

Ugh! This week he seems to be going for only 1 long afternoon nap of 2-4 hours at 12 months. I had hope reading about Olive going to one nap at 15 months, w would have more time, but it looks like Cam isn't following that pattern I miss the 2 nap days!!

Of course with this nap change, his night sleep has gone to crap too. He had been sick a lot lately, so I'm hoping it gets better soon.

He's naps 3x a day - anywhere from. An hour to 1.5 the first time, 2 hrs the 2nd and the last one is flux depending on what we're doing. He wakes up 2-3 times at night. I'm thinking its time to try to shift his last nap so he goes to bed eariler/easier.

Always four naps a day ranging from 30-45 minutes. She usually starts getting tired around 1.5 hours awake and hardly ever goes longer then 2 hours. DD is five months.
