H is still sleeping in her carseat and it's almost 430, she fell asleep at 3. I like to do solids at 630/645, then bath, then hopefully dropping her in the crib 715/730.
I think I'll wake her up at 430, in a few mins.
What's the latest you'll let LO nap relative to bedtime?

LO has been looooving a late nap lately. She goes down at 8 and as long as I don't let her sleep later than 6:30 she goes down without a fight.

LO has always taken a nap from 5:15-6/6:30. I wake her up if she isn't up by 6:30. We always put her in bed at 8 and she sleeps 12 hrs with no problems

She needs to be up by 5... Or at least I think so anyway. Bed between 7-8, depending on her sleepiness but usually aim for 730 in her crib!

My LO was really tired and she took a five hour nap yesterday from 12-5. She went to sleep at 7:30.

Same as @MamaMoose. I let her take a short (30-45) min nap around 530 and she is in bed at 8.

As an infant it was 5, bed by 6. As an older baby it was 4:30, bed by 6:30. As a toddler is 2:30. We do bathtime at 6:30 and bed by 7.

@autumnlove: That is quite the epic nap!!!!
I always make sure he's awake at 5. Bedtime starts at 7 and he goes down at about 7:30. He very rarely naps all the way until 5 though!

Good question. LO is impossible to get to nap and finally crashes around 4 for her afternoon nap, sometimes sleeping until we wake her up. She's asleep now (6pm) and debating when to wake her..

I don't let LO nap past 4, 4:30 if she went down late. She needs at least 4 hours of awake time before going to bed.

At least 1.5 hours before bedtime preferably 2-3. If he falls asleep around 5, I'll wake him by 545 (IF he sleeps that long!) or so to have bedtime at 730.
