One nap?

Hi! Have your babies gone down to one nap? How did you know it’s time? And what schedule do you follow?

We went down to one nap at around 10 months.
We used to do a nap at around 10:00 and another at 2:30, but my daughter started fighting the first one and she didn't sleep long during the second, so we just switched to one long nap at around 12:30 and she sleeps so much better.

Mine does one nap occasionally 2 but it totally depends on how he is if he gets up 5-6 in the morning and didn't sleep well he will nap around 930 till 1030-11 ish
Most mornings he wakes up between 8-9 then we do breakfast then play lunch at 12 then depending on time and cranky level play till 1-130 then nap till 3-330 dinner around 5-6 bedtime is between 7-8 depending upon naps and how tired they seem

I just let my kids lead on when to drop morning naps my kids get snuggly when they are tired if they need a morning nap now they usually fall asleep in my lap watching one of their shows while siblings play

I knew he was ready for a 1 nap when he slept for about 3 hours. He would nap at 11 than another one around 4. He slept from 11 to 3 one time, and since then, he's been on the 1 nap. He will tell me when it's nap time by putting his head on my lap.

Yes one nap2-3 hours long

that’s same schedule we have no. Nap around noon for 2-3 hours and bedtime about 730

We noticed that after the second nap she was so cranky almost like she got to much sleep. And we found just keeping her up she was much happier. We moved her bedtime to 7 instead of 730

my little one was down to 1 nap before she turned 1 honestly. It depends on your baby’s wake window. As they get older, their wake windows are longer. I think you eventually notice when it’s time depending on how later you want bedtime to be.
My little one normally wakes up around 9am and is down by 1pm. I don’t let her sleep past 3:30pm so that she can be in bed by 10pm. I noticed it was time to drop her second nap when she was napping at 11am and then again at 6pm and staying up until almost midnight. The only exception is make is when she gets her vaccines ☹️ they seem to take a toll on her little body so I let her sneak a 2nd nap if she needs it.

The last couple days have been one nap, but I think it’s here to stay. Ideally, I try to have him down between 12-1pm for like 2 hrs sometimes 2.5 hrs. Yesterday he didn’t take his nap till like almost 3 and woke up a little after 5. We struggled yesterday for sure.

I switched my son around 13 or 14 months I can’t remember, but it was because he was fighting the 2nd nap like crazy and would wake after 20-30 min. Now he sleeps anywhere from 1.5-2.5 hours

I recently switched to one nap because she was fighting her 2nd nap and was having a hard time falling asleep at night. I just cut the 2nd nap completely but didn’t change the time of her 1st nap. She sleeps from 6:30PM - 7:30-8 AM & her nap is at 11am to 12:30-1pm

Sleeping bag

8 week old in sleeping bag for first time as big enough! Do you feed your child in the night whilst in the sleeping bag or taken them out, feed then transfer back to sleeping bag before putting down?

Leaky nappy help

What nappies are you using to stop leaks?? We use pampers ultra dry size 5, and for the past few nights he has lashed through and we’ve had to completely change him during the night. Last night he leashed through twice!! He sleeps on his front and stays leaks through at the top of his leg where the tabs connect. Didn’t know whether to size up, he has a bit of a belly on him but he’s smack in middle of weight guidance so shouldn’t need too

My little one is struggling with sleep

Hey! I'm in need of some advice please girls! My little boy is 20 months turns 21 months in 2 half weeks. He use to sleep through the night now he is waking up every single night in the early morning, I've had to transition him to a toodler bed as he kept climbing out his cot. Just need some advice on what I can do to help him get back in to a sleep pattern?

6 month old autistism

My 6 month old makes no eye contact with me and doesn’t respond when I call him. Can this just be a phase or personality trait as apposed to autism

New born

Finally had my baby girl via C-section on the 18th, everything has been so far. But I’ve noticed she’s very fussy and cries a lot. I’ve been trying to exclusively breastfeed. The lactation consultant at the hospital said I did look like I’m making enough milk for her. She was latching on good at the hospital and now here at home, she doesn’t seem to want to latch at all. She’s been crying a lot and very fussy. I’m just wondering is she’s colic or like maybe she just doesn’t want the breast anymore?

5.30am wakeups 😫😴

My 15 week old has started waking up about 5.30am and is really hard to settle back down - it’s like he thinks it’s time to wake up for the day. He used to go to bed at 9pm and was up at 8am but now he goes to bed between 7.30-8pm as he’s knackered by then but waking up at 5.30am😴. Any advice to get him to sleep a little longer in the morning?! Even an extra hour would be lovely 🤣
