How long are they up between wake-up and nap 1, nap 1 and nap 2, and nap 2 and bedtime? My LO's awake times are 2.25 hours, 3.5 hours, and 3 hours. Should i try and stretch out her first awake time? She will be 9 months old tomorrow.

This was Olive's schedule at 9-10 months:
8:00am – wake up
10:30am 12:00pm – Nap 1 (2 1/2 hour awake time)
3:00pm 4:00pm – Nap 2 (3 hour awake time)
6:30pm – Bedtime (2 1/2 hour awake time)She was a little sleepier than average though. But her schedule remained similar until 14 months so it sounds like you have a pretty good schedule right now.

Cobi is 10.5 months. First stretch is 2.5 hours. Second is 2.5-3 hours and the stretch between nap and bedtime is a lot longer- sometimes 5 hours!

Ours is something like this, although the lengths of her naps do vary from 30 minutes to sometimes up to 1.5 hours:
8:00am – wake up
11am 12:00-ishpm – Nap 1 (3 hours awake time)
3:30pm 4:30-ishpm – Nap 2 (3.5 hour awake time)
7:30pm – Bedtime (3 hour awake time) -
that sounds good to me, usually the first awake stretch is shorter. A lot of babies do well with a 2-3-4 schedule at this point, so 2 hours from wake up to first nap, 3 hours between naps and then 4 hours awake before bed.

That schedule sounds like what LO was doing until all our traveling and teething messed her up
Right now, her schedule looks like this:8AM: Wake up
11AM - 1PM: Nap #1
** I try to put her down for another nap around 3PM - 3:30PM-ish, but she always fight it, even when her eyes are puffy from sleep. Ideally, she'd nap for at least :30, but this never happens
630PM: BedtimeThere are some awful days when she's up from 1PM - 630PM, with no nap... so grouchy!!

@Mrs. Superhero: huh, ive never heard of that. Makes sense though.
C is generally about 3 hours between naps, give or take 20/30 minutes.

Our waketimes at 9 months were 3, 3.5, 2.75-3 hours.
Is she fighting naps, taking short naps or taking a long time to fall asleep? Or is she having parties in the middle of the night?

@MungBean: I'm guessing that your LO is nowhere near tired enough after 2.5 hrs to take a 2nd nap. Have you tried either limiting the 1st nap to 1.5 hours or putting her down at 4? If my LO takes a 2hr first nap he fights his 2nd like crazy and then takes a really short 2nd nap and wakes up grumpy.

DS is up 2 hours, 45 minutes to 3 hours between every nap and before bedtime.

She had two naps at that age:
Nap #1: 9-10:30am
Nap #2: 1-2:30pmThen if we were out or something, she would "nap" in the car on the way home for about 30 minutes.
Bedtime was at 6pm.
Right now, her schedule looks like this:
