10 months old can’t fall asleep for bedtime

My nearly 10 months old had a great sleeping schedule 2 naps a day each 1-1,5hrs first one around 9 30-10am and second nap around 2pm for an hour or hour and half and she was going to bed around 7ish falling asleep without any issues on her own but recently she is struggling to go to sleep for 40mins up to an hour she is just in a cot making noises but not crying ,making is aware she doesn’t want to be in a cot. Does anyone drop their 10 months old nap from 2 to 1 yet?

Sometimes my nearly 10 month old only has 1 nap- we don’t have any routine- if she acts tired and falls asleep she sleeps- if she doesn’t want to sleep she just doesn’t 😅

It’s pretty early to drop to one nap.

Could you not just cap the current two naps so that baby sleeps for 30 mins the first nap then 1.5 the second? You can play with the timings to see what works you may need a longer or shorter second nap to get the desired result.

If it’s taking an hour to get to sleep baby isn’t tired at the time they’re going down x

We need a 4.5 hour wake window before bed, so if baby woke up at 3.30 bedtime would be 8pm. But I guess it's trial and error to see what wake window suits your baby! Ours was 4 hours then it went to 4.5!

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

Am I wrong?

I’ve been wanting to add more garden beds to my garden. Husband says “hey do you want to go to Home Depot to get that wood for the garden beds.” Cool I’m excited I’ve been wanting to get this done for awhile.

We get there and we’re picking out wood and I make 2 comments about how I don’t like how 2 pieces of wood look that he picked out. And he says if you’re going to be this picky then u can do this yourself.

I literally made 2 comments and mind you I’m the one paying for the wood.

I felt dismissed and like my opinion didn’t matter and if I wanted to have an opinion then I need to do it myself. Like what?

It was rude and not okay. Am I wrong? Am I overreacting?

He thinks it was fine that he said that.

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 🤣
