It’s anywhere from 30-45min, which he hasn’t done since he was like 4mo. Another regression? Random? Need to extend his wake window? Lol He’s currently going down for his first nap after 3hr 15min-ish.

Yup!! Right there with you! It’s not consistent but she will wake up after 30 min some days. No idea what it is just trying to go with it. Ugh!

Yea ma’am. 30 to 40 mins is his usual nap range

I hear it’s a sleep regression due to separation anxiety

My LG has one nap 30-45 mins and another one sometimes longer (1h15min) sometimes again 45 mins. I think that’s normal

Yes mine too

Yes! He used to nap an hour or two and now it’s no more than 45 twice a day and he’s waking up so angry

my daughter fights me for every nap and bedtime. She absolutely hates sleeping and hates cat rides Bec she knows it will put her to sleep 🤦🏼♀️

I hope it passes soon, nap times are when I speedrun getting all the chores done 😂

Oh, interesting. He can play by himself for a while, BUT he can see me in the kitchen from his playpen so maybe that’s why haha

yes! He wakes up whining and upset. Also, throughout the night he’s up every hour again, but he had a cold and is teething so I chalked it up to that 😬

oh no!! Hopefully it passes soon! Mine isn’t fighting me to go to sleep (currently lol), just waking up super often and is upset when waking

Mine wakes up at 45 mins if he’s overtired… that being said you could try shortening his wake window or it could just be a regression… hope it gets better soon!

His wake window is the same as it was last week and he was doing 1.5hr each nap, easily! The sudden switch to short naps happened a few days ago 🤔 I’m thinking either regression or maybe even longer wake window?? It’s just ongoing change with these babies 😂

uh yes, as soon as you think you have it figured out they switch it up on you… hope you can figure it out soon!

Hopefully it’s one of those that passes in a week or so 😂🤞🏼

Yeah mine too! I just lay down with him, otherwise its 15-30 mins.

Same. Makes sense that separation anxiety pops up at this age. She usually slept up to 2 hours, and suddenly she wakes up 5-15 minutes after I sneak away 🥲

just kidding I shouldn’t have said that…he just fought me for 45min for his second nap. I should know better than to say any part of his sleep is going well out loud 🤣

so what you’re telling me is it hasn’t gotten any better yet 😂😭

Yup! She used to nap pretty long and now is waking up after 45 minutes. I read it can be because they don’t know how to go into the deeper sleep cycle but 🤷🏻♀️ she sleeps well at night

if I count correctly, it has been 6 days of that. It started with a skipped nap 😂 I'll let you know if she grows out of it 😁

This is mine at night tooo. I get no sleep

Mine did this for a couple weeks then one day he was so tired he had three naps and now he’s back to normal.

They go through a sleep regression around this time. It’s probably the new normal for a few weeks until their sleep cycle settles again. They’ll also go through one at 12 months.

And to piggy back off what you said in another comment, your baby’s wake windows might also be getting a little longer as well. My baby’s 9M regression lasted about a month and a half and it started right when she started crawling at 81/2M. She’s 10M now and I finally got her on a routine again like a week ago.

At 10mo!? 😂 I thought they learned this during the 4mo regression!? Lol all I know is I know nothing at all about baby sleep and probably never will hahah

Oh gosh…ok well I’m looking forward to a comment from you in a few days 😂😭 jk I know as soon as this phase ends, something else will happen haha

I get so excited if he gives us 3hrs in a row in one night 🫠

Amazing, I hope that happens for us too! (and everyone else in this comments section!!)

Ok, so there’s some hope haha. Today I’m going to try waiting until 3.5hrs for his first wake window and see if it helps. He also is getting over a cold, so I’m sure that had an effect!

He completely put himself to sleep for his first nap and slept for 1hr 15min, but fighting his second nap for 45 min again 😂 what is happpppeninnnng

Update if anyone was wondering:
The short naps only lasted a few days and he actually now can put himself to sleep almost every time!? 😂 Babies are so confusing lol
