Up until recently, DS would take 2 naps a day with usually no fight. Sometimes he would even take 3 depending on what time our day started. The last few days have been a little crazy and I'm trying to figure things out. I think he might be ready to reduce his naps down to one but I want to hear what others have experienced.
1. How old is your LO?
2. How many naps does your LO take a day?
3. How long are those naps?
4. What's your schedule like?
5. How old was your LO when they started taking 1 nap a day? (If they're at that point)
-------------------------------------------------
1. 8.5 months
2. 2 (sometimes 3). Yesterday, he only took one and he's only had one today.
3. 2 hours; Yesterday's and Today's were both 3 hours long
4. Varies a little depending on wakeup time but I'll give you the schedule before the changes.
8:30-wake up
10:30 - nap
12:30 - wake up
2:30 - nap
4:30 - wake up
7:00 - bedtime
5. Maybe now?
He's been doing okay with one nap but not as good as he does with two. He starts getting fussy around 4:30pm and that's too late for a nap and too early for bedtime. When I put him down for a second nap yesterday and the day before, he screamed for almost an hour. I ended up getting him up yesterday because it was so bad. Sunday was also rough but he eventually went to sleep.
Anyway, sorry if this post is a mess! DH is away for work and I've been trying to post this for an hour now. Help? Advice? Experiences?
