strange sleep pattern?

KaylaC0514 · August 2013

My LO will be a year next week. We've been working on getting a set sleep schedule with him because he has been all over the place. We've also successfully sleep trained all in good timing since I'm due with DS2 in 7 weeks. Anyway his pattern seems to be awake 8am. Morning Nap 11-1230. And afternoon nap 430-530. Bedtime 730. Isn't it weird that his wake times are 3 hrs, 4 hrs, 2 hrs? I guess whatever works for him but I'm wondering if I'm missing something. Should I be making his wake time longer in the evenings? He sleeps through the night just fine. You will probably say if hes sleeping fine then what's the problem? I just want to know how common it is and if it will cause any sleep problems if it continues too long. Hope I'm making sense. Pregnancy brain is something I didnt Miss before and I won't miss it after this one either.

Unless I'm missing something, it sounds like he's got a pretty steady sleep schedule. Before DS1 dropped down to one nap, he was on a 2-3-4 (he fell into it on his own). I do have a friend whose LO did the opposite like yours though.

If he's napping well, sleeping well at night and not getting up super early, I don't see what the problem is.

Thanks. I don't know why it was concerning me. I'm just so afraid of ever messing with his sleep because baby sleep can be so confusing. Some of my friends have their babies on a set schedule from the time they were 3 months old. I've had to sleep train myguy many times. He nap and wake times seemed to be always changing. At one point he was only napping once a day and it was all different times. But he's finally committing I think. I hope.
