Another sleep question: naps

Lhyacinth888 · October 2013

When is your LO's last nap of the day before bedtime (time and length) and what time is bedtime?

arschm02 · October 2013

He usually will have a short nap around 4-4:30. He is always up by 5pm. His bedtime is between 7:00-7:30 so it ends up working out perfectly. We are at 3 naps per day still (unless his day is a little thrown off).

He has went to sleep around 5pm and wake up at 6pm and his bedtime will be at 8. If he took his nap earlier then I move his bedtime earlier.

He's usually up from a nap around 4. We start bedtime routine at 7 and try to have him asleep in his crib by 8.

I would love if Will could be awake for more than 2 hours without turning into a complete bear!

He usually goes down from 4-5 for his last nap. For the past couple nights if we don't start his bedtime routine by 6, he goes into complete meltdown mode. He is usually asleep by 6:30.

Naps are at 9ish and 1ish and last from 1-2 hours. Down for the night at 6.

He usually has a nap around 3 or 4 that is 30-60 minutes long. Bedtime is around 7pm.

Mandmeesh · October 2013

yesterday his nap started at 4p, he woke up at 6:30. Bedtime was at 8. If his nap time is different and he sleeps, say, 4-5, I've tried adjusting his bedtime, but he gets overtired if it's not 8p for bedtime routine. His last two nap times vary slightly, but bedtime stays the same no matter what

If it's a three-nap day, last nap is usually 3:30 to 4 or so and he is in bed between 6 and 6:30. If it's a two-nap day (basically if Nap 2 is 2+ hours long), that nap runs from 1-3 or so and he is still in bed between 6 and 6:30.

I tend to work off of how long he has been awake rather than what time it is.

This is the same for us.

He falls asleep anywhere between 3 and 430 and on good days sleeps an hour and a half. Latest I let him sleep is 5:30. Bedtime routine starts at 7:30.

We don't have a set schedule still. DS usually takes 2-4 naps a day, depending on how well he naps. We try not to keep him up for more than 2 hours at a time. Some nights he takes a nap at 5:30/6pm and we start our bedtime routine at 6:30. There have been times DS is still napping at 6:30 and I will wake him to do him normal routine. He doesn't give us a problem going back to bed for the night.

2 hours I'd out max too. I push it to 3 hours sometimes but I have to do a whole circus act every 15 mins just to keep him from losing it.

Naps are 10 and 2 bedtime is 7ish. I slide when I start her bedtime routine by 15 mins or so based on when she awoke from her afternoon nap.

skidderdo · October 2013

Naps around 9/10... 2ish... and plus or minus a quick 5pm nap. Bedtime somewhere between 7-8

sapphire021 · October 2013

We still don't have a nap schedule. She will take 2 naps a day, once in the morning(9-10), and once in the afternoon(1-3). They last anywhere from 20 minutes to 2 hours. Rarely she will take a 3rd nap around 530pm. Bedtime is at 8:30pm, unless she falls asleep earlier which happens on occasion.
