Babies: 0 - 3 Months

what age?

what ago do you start putting LO down for scheduled naps? ds just falls asleep whenever...no scheduled time, and he just started sleeping about 5 hours in a row a couple nights ago... he was 5 weeks early(he is 3 months now) -not sure if that makes a difference.

Re: what age?

  • every baby is different. my ds will be 2mo and he isn't on any kind of schedule for naps.  eventually they will fall into their own schedule but until then i just feed on demand and put him down when hes tired.  for a few weeks now he has been going to bed around 9pm and sleeping until 2-3am, nurses, and sleeps again until 6-7am. there has been a few nights that he woke up more frequently but for the most part this is his routine for bedtime

  • We got our BFP on the same day. :)

    My son is 10 weeks and on no schedule for naps. Two days a week he's at daycare, two days a week my parents watch him, and the other three days he's at home...we just let him nap whenver he's tired. I know at daycare they start having scheduled naps whenever they move up to the Infant 2 room, which is around 6-8 months. They get a morning nap and an afternoon nap, but a few babies still nap more than that. So I think it's fine at 3 months to still not be scheduled. I'm not even sure how you would go about scheduling naps! If my son is tired, I'm not going to keep him awake just to make him sleep at a certain time. When he's older, yes, but not as a baby.

  • My dd is 4 months and doesn't have a nap schedule. She'll get in to a routine for a couple days, then all of a sudden it changes. We've tried making one for her but our days are never the same so it doesn't work very well.
