Short naps

My girl will be 6 months at the end of the month and her naps are never longer than 45 minutes 🥲 following for anyones advice

Mine! He'll nap for like 20-40 min max on the couch with me sitting in his view. If I put him in the crib, there's instant crying. Contact naps work so well (1.5-2hrs) but I'm trying to wean him off that, this mama needs to be able to drink water n pee 😅

I could have written this. 20-40 are all we get and we’ve tried every environment and that’s all we get. He’s sleeping 10 hours straight through at night so I don’t want to mess with anything too badly and risk screwing that up

Our 5 month old only takes 2 naps a day (30-45 minutes each time). He sleeps 12 hours a night tho. I tried decreasing the number of hours at night time but that didn't make a difference. He was grumpy when I woke him up vs when he woke up naturally. I gave up 😅

Same. 5 months…takes 20-30 minute naps but sleep 10-11 hours at night. It’s developmentally appropriate that their naps are short at this age but it’s really hard to get anything done! They typically don’t get longer until 6-8 months. This is info is from my pediatrician.

My baby is 6 months old and until 3 weeks ago this was us. We had to rock her to sleep for 20 min and she would only sleep 30-45 min. Then we got “precious little sleep” book, went with the sleep training method described there. And booom second day she started taking her 90-120 min naps. I’d recommend everyone get that book!

20-30mins naps and has never slept thru the night 😮‍💨
