If you are on one nap please come in

What are your awake times?
LO is up around 6/7 then naps from 12:302 or 2:30 then down around 6:45. He's still waking at night so I'm thinking of putting him to bed later? What's your routine? Fwiw he's almost 1 year.

    Maybe your LO needs two naps a day? I know my LO wakes at night if he's overtired. From what I've read two naps a day is best until they are 14-18 mos old. We do a morning nap around 10 and then an afternoon nap around 2:30. He naps 45 minutes to 1.5 hours. Then bed at 7, he wakes at 7:30 am.

    He sleeps more on the weekend, but during the week when he's at daycare he only has one nap.  He wakes around 7am, naps from 12:30-2:30, and then is in bed between 7:30/8.  But as a word of warning, he still wakes up at night (usually once between 3 and 6, but more often during teething)

    Wake time - 7a

    Nap - 12-3p

    Bedtime - 7:30p

    She has been STTN since she was 5 weeks.  I don't think I did anything to get her to sleep that well though.  I just follow her cues.  She used to take 2 naps and go to bed later, but now she is taking one nap and going to bed earlier.

    This is almost exactly us too.  I would offer the same advice.  We tried to go to one nap for 2 days in a row with two 5 hr wake times and a 7pm bed time.  He was soooo cranky and it just made him a different kid.  Not sweet and easy going.  Then he woke too early from one of the naps and then woke early in the morning after only 10.5hrs of sleep.

    From what I've heard, keep the two naps as long as you can.  That's what we're doing right now.  Buying time until his wake times increase.
