1 year old sleep schedule

My 1 year old has a following schedule Wake up 7.30am 1st nap 12-12:30 Then 2nd 16-17:15 He usually goes to bed around 20:30-21:00 and sleeps through the night. Often cries before every nap. We tried moving the first one many times but seems he always wants to sleep so late. Also if we skip 2nd nap and do bed time at 19:30 he wakes up at 5am . How's your baby sleeping and what's your schedule??

I mean… if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. Our day looks something like this: Wake up - 7ish 1st nap - 10:30ish-12 2nd nap - 3:45ish-5 Bedtime - 9ish He still wakes in the night though, can be once, can be 5 times. There seems to be no rhyme or reason to it 🫠 x

Is there a reason why you need to change anything? Sometimes babies declare their own schedules based on their own circadian rhythm

@Jess sorry to hear that ! Hope he'll sleep through soon. Our has nights when he wakes up but usually it's when he's teething so like 2 days only. Whe. He was 6 months -9 he used to wake up every 30 min every single night. 😩

@Alyssa yes I read about it ! Not really other than we used to have some time for ourselves when bed time was at 7pm back in the days. Now we only have like 1hr and cleaning takes a lot of it. Plus all mum friends I have they do bed time at 6.45-7 so I thought maybe I was doing it wrong

Wow,can u transmit this schedule (habit ) to my 9m who goes to bed and 10 : pm and sleep takes her at 11 :pm ,and will wake up several times in the night (2 or 3 times .. Then waking up time is 9:00am,then nap at mid day,then another nap will be at 4:00pm and we shall wait for 10 pm or even 11:00pm for her to get sleep again... I like ur schedule,ur baby is having enough sleep at night for sure

That's a long wake window after 2nd nap! Have you tired any tweaks to help out move it earlier?

@Julia it's real long,i have tried and if she does,she will sleep for only 40 minutes and wake up

Thanks for this, looks similar to ours!

We have this schedule: Wake: 7 Nap: 12-2:30/3 Bed:7 No wakes thankfully! But I think we’re just lucky with a baby who loves sleep! x

That's such a good schedule! I tried 1 nap only but he won't sleep any longer. So I guess that's what he likes 🤨

My baby is 6 months and we don’t have a schedule, it keeps changing and right now he’s going to sleep at 3am, not napping properly in the day time and waking up at 5am, 7am, 10am and stays up after 11am. He slept through the night before. This is so hard 😭

@Rachna our used to slept beautifully up until 6 months old and then from 6-9 would wake up every 30 min so I feel your pain. Hang in there and try different things!

They’re quite long wake windows for his age and it doesn’t sound as though he is getting enough nighttime sleep so he could just be continuously over tired. It’s a vicious cycle 😩 When my daughter was 1 we done 7:30 wake, 1st nap 10:00-10:30, 2nd nap 1:30-3:00 and bedtime at 7pm. It’s recommended they settle for bed around 12 hours after they wake. Hope you get some rest real soon!! X

We have 7:30 wake Nap 1 10:30-11:30 Nap 2 3-4 Bed around 8 Sleeps through the night This may change slightly each day if she takes longer to fall asleep etc i basically follow wake windows of 3, 3.5 and 4 hours
