45 minute naps

in June 2012 Moms

DS only naps for 45 minutes, sometimes longer if in the car.  He wakes up happy.  He is sleeping 12 hours at night.  Is it bad that he doesn't nap longer?  Or should I not worry about it?  Heis in daycare also.  Sometimes he sleeps longer there, but ithinmthe they move him from crib to swing, etc.  I am pretty sure daycare won't do any of the things I've read about for getting past the 45 minute nap intruder.

    We're in the same boat. Ever since DD started STTN (about 12 hours) her naps are about 45min - 1hr max. She's happy so I'm not worried about it. She takes about 3 naps in the day.

    I only wish my dd would nap for 45 minutes and/or sleep for 12 hours.

    I think your LO will be fine.

    We are in a similar boat. DS gets about 1011 hours of sleep at night with a wake up in there and his naps are only 3045 minutes...although the of naps he takes in the day varies. I usually have to go through a lot of trouble getting him down and then he's up less than an hour later!

    I'm wondering though what you've read that you can do to extend nap time?

    This is us.  Before LO hit the 4 month mark he started STTN more and more often and then one day his naps went and he's now up every night (sleeps 7-10pm, then 10:15-3:30, then 4:00-8:00).  I found this blog post about the 45 minute intruder and have been trying some things but don't know how much I should worry about it.   Our community health nurse says it's no good that he has such short naps, DH doesn't think it matters and I'm kind of stressing thinking he's never going to nap longer and will never STTN again!  I don't know if I should try cry it out, it makes me anxious just thinking about it.
