Mallory takes 2-4 catnaps a day that last from 10-20 minutes. She also usually takes one longer nap that can be anywhere from 50 minutes to 3 hours long. So we are all over the place and have no set schedule during the day, I just try to follow her lead.
C is still napping in between every feeding... so, 6-7 times during the day. They are all around 45 minutes except for one or two naps that are 2-2.5 hours. The problem is that she only naps when being held! If we put her down, she wakes right up and misses her nap... and then she is a total bear. It also makes it really hard to take her out anywhere without a meltdown. She is typically awake 1-1.5 hours before napping.
For us it depends.... A will only take catnaps <45min when putin his swing or crib or carseat/stroller. So oncatnap days he gets anywhere from 4-6 naps. However if I bring him to bedwith me for a nap then I can get anywhere from 2-3.5 hours in an afternoon nap. Leading to about 3 naps per day.

We're all over the freakin' map. Lately she will only catnap (20 minutes or so at a time, up to 45 if I'm lucky), and I have a really hard time setting her down in her crib. She mostly wants to nap on the boob. So frustrating. At least she sleeps great at night (for now)!
