Baby having very little nap

My 7 month old is the same. He generally will only nap for around 30mins. This means he sometimes has 4 naps a day, sometimes 3 as otherwise his wake windows would be too long. He’s had the odd nap that has been long (1-1.5hrs) but generally they’re only 30mins long! I wish it was longer 😂

ah that’s okay then I thought I was the only one haha, yep he’s the same he’s done the odd long nap, which was great then all of a sudden he decided he wanted to take short naps instead. Yeah he can have up to 4, but he’s only done 3 today and he’s not even had 2 hours altogether then had nearly a 4 hour wake window tonight I couldn’t believe it haha. I wish mine was a bit longer sometimes.

ah I see, I never have either. When I know he’s getting restless I put him down for a nap and it doesn’t take him long to fall asleep. Yeah he sleeps all night so I can’t complain.

@Helen sadly I don't think this is true. When they don't manage a few sleep cycles, it usually does indicate a sleep issue.

Often short naps is a sign that wake windows need stretching, especially if the babies can do longer naps. If they can’t sleep longer it is possibly a sign that they haven’t learnt to link sleep cycles
