What is your nap routine?

ktrn

Hi,

I am still working on getting DS to nap in his crib after some rough nights and a weekend where everything went out the window. 

ANyway do you do a routine before putting LO to nap?

Where does LO nap?

How many naps?

How long does LO nap for?

Thanks so much

We have no schedule. Some days, LO sleeps all day and some days, he is up all day. When he naps, he is either in his swing or PNP or we're out and about and he's in his car seat. On a "normal" day, he sleeps one long nap in the afternoon for about 3 hours and an hour and half in the morning with some catnaps in between. We have no routine before a nap, he just falls asleep.

His naps are all over the place still. We are out and about a lot so he naps in his carseat/stroller/moby wrap on the go mostly with one good hour-hour and a half nap in the swing. He typically naps 3x per day.

I cant get him to nap in his crib yet, but Im not stressing about it.

We don't really have a routine yet but I am starting to see patterns.  Of course today everything is off. She usually goes down for a morning nap around 9/930, but this morning she instead decided to stay sleeping after going back to bed after her last feeding (6am). Normally she will nap for an hour after her last feeding at that time.

 DD sleeps in her swing and in her car seat if we are out doing errands. She will sometimes nap in her crib. She will usually take a nap in the morning and one in the afternoon, though there are days where she only naps in the morning.

Not sure if any of this is helpful. Didn't mean for this to be so long either.

We don't really have a routine but DD will usually nap three times a day for about 45 minutes each.  One in the morning, one in the afternoon and one early evening nap.  She is always swaddled before a nap unless we are on the go and she sleeps either in her swing, bassinet or RnP.

We don't have  routine other than he sleeps when he sleeps.  He is usually in his RnP, PnP, swing or carseat if we're out and about. Some days he sleeps a ton, some days he hardly naps.  Just depends on what he is feeling like doing that day I suppose.

DS usually sleeps in the morning until 7:30 then typically goes back down around 9 or 9:30 but how long he stays asleep for varies.  I wish it were more predictable but right now it's not.  If we're at home he may not sleep at all, but if we're out running errands, he can sleep all day in his carseat.

Right now I'm trying to transition him to the crib for naptime (he's a carseat sleeper) so I think this is going to be a rough week for naps.

No sleeping routine. Only thing is now at night when we do our like 9ish feeding we rock her to sleep ourselves and straight to the crib she goes. During the day she cat naps tho so if she wakes up and doesnt see me around and just her crib she goes crazy. She is slowly developing her own routine which we feel is best. Just happy she finally uses the crib after 3 months almost lol.
