A threeee hour naaaaap....wake him?

I never know about these things....Miles has been sleeping for three hours now and is due to eat. I'm sure he'll be up as I finish typing this, but I'm tempted to wake him.

Then I think "Never wake a sleeping baby!!!!!!" And he did only nap for 45 minutes this morning (making me want to tear my hair out). I suppose I should just let him sleep and see what happens.

There, answered my own question. How annoying is that? LOL

If it makes you feel better Jackson took a four hour nap yesterday and was up until like 11.  His nap, however, began at 3 and lasted until 7.

If it had begun earlier, I think he would have been in bed at a more normal time.

I am of the "never wake a sleeping baby" camp, just because I'd rather press my luck that they may not go to bed on time than wake him up and give up glorious free time.

HAAAAA

Very true. I did get to take a small nap myself, which was INVALUABLE going on day three of no DH, and cleaned up this pig sty since I have friends coming over for dinner in a couple hours.

I would kill for a 3 hour nap.  No matter the punishment.  DS does not sleep.  He goes to bed around 10 and is up at 8.  He sleeps maybe 1 to 1.5 hours total during the day, but broken up into 3 naps.  He wakes every 2 -3 hours at night.  I am sleepy.

I never wake them.  I figure if they are sleeping they need it.  DS has taken late naps and gone to bed an hour later.

I would wake from a nap if it were later than 4:30 pm just to keep the child on a schedule for bedtime.  A three hour nap doesn't bother me unless it hits that time frame.

No way man.  I never wake him...and he sleeps his nuts off most of the time.  I swear he can take a 3 hour nap a day and still go to bed around 9 and sleep until 8 or 9.
