A was the KING of catnaps, 30-40 min. like clockwork!

He did eventually grow out of it! we got down to three 45-1 hour naps... then around six/seven months he went to 2 1 -1.5 hour naps and is still at this schedule at 11 months!

My son took 30 minute naps until about 5-6 months old. They lengthened to 45 minutes until about 7-8 months. The naps got longer when he went down to two naps a day. Nothing made them longer except car rides. Sorry! Just had to wait it out. He's 13 months now and sometimes has 3 hour nap. I never thought I'd see the day!

@lawbee11: we tried everything except CIO and nothing worked. We had to just wait and 5.5 m was a turning point for us. Oh and what!! Didn't you just give birth

DS was like this. He's almost 4 months now and takes a 45 minute nap in the morning and then takes one loooong nap in the afternoon (3 hours). He'll take another cat nap in the early evening for about 45 minutes then it's bed time!

I haaaaate naps. HATE. We actually got the best naps ever this weekend when we took her to Ren Fest because she was in the Ergo + the car, but duh, that doesn't work every day! Wahh. She will go down for 3-4 30min naps, and that's IT. Sleeps like a dream at night, but man the girl sucks at napping.

She did have a lovely stretch at daycare around 3 mos where she took 2-3 2 HOUR naps, but our theory is she's just having too much fun with toys now to sleep

LO is 7 months old and has always taken 45 min naps, even now that she's down to 2 a day. It's kind of a bummer, but her nighttime sleep is great! (maybe that will be your silver lining, too!)
