Naps

twoitalians

I have a question opposite Twizzle's post...

How long and how many naps are your LOs taking during the day? Rylan has started taking 2 hour or more naps during the day with the morning one being the longest and sometimes no evening nap. He has also just recently started taking Zantac and waking more at night so I'm wondering if the longer naps are because of either of those.

Also, would you wake your LO from a nap to feed them? I'm worried that if I don't, he will be awake all night.

Edit stupid auto correct

depends on the day.  before the teething started she was doing a 2-3 hour nap morning and afternoon and a 1 hour nap morning and early evening. last two weeks we've been up for 2 hours down for 30-60 minutes all day.

Always 3 naps. I tried to add a 4th yesterday because 2 naps were really short but he wasn't having it. It's usually 1 long nap of about 1.5 hours and 2 shorter ones, about 45 to 60 min.

3 naps per day. Morning and afternoon naps about 2 hours and a 30 minute cat nap in the evening.

About 4. 2 longer naps, 2 cat naps. Naps are between 45 minutes and 2 hours.

Usually 4 to 5 naps a day. They are usually about 45 minutes long, but it ranges from 30 mins to 2 hours.

ETA: And no, I wouldn't wake to feed at this point. I will take the sleep at whatever time of day I can get it.

A two HOUR nap? I freaking wish.

30 minutes...maybe...and only if I'm holding him the entire time. If I set him down, he's up 10 minutes later.

Our routine is about a 45 minute am nap. Afternoon nap is longer...between 2 and 3 hours, but, a large chunk of that is one of us holding him. He would take a power 20 minute 3rd nap, but lately has been dropping that.

I look forward to him napping longer on his own. With my first that happened around 6 months.

LOL sorry, anbeck

2 hours or more is uncharacteristic for us. It used to be only 45 mins at a time.

Phew!  I thought I was doing something wrong....DS will only nap for long periods of time in our arms.  I think he naps better at daycare.  Or when we are out of town he naps well in his pack n play, but does not nap well in his crib at home.  So frustrating!
