Hey mammas! What is everyone’s daily routine looking like? My babe is still on 2 naps a day, but had recently been sleeping terribly over night, waking before 6 every morning now. Her morning nap is now about 9 due to her early wake, and she could sleep 2 hours +. Her afternoon nap is a struggle to get her to sleep, which is usually about 3/3.30 but she could still sleep 1.5 hours once she’s down. She then sleeps till about 5 o’clock. Is this what is making our night time sleep bad? She goes to bed usually between 7-8pm. Is she ready to drop a nap? I don’t see how she could wake up at 6, and not sleep then until 12…. She’s ready for her morning nap? But I also don’t see how she could stay awake from 11.30 ish to bedtime? 😫 I’m so stuck… can anyone give me any advice please? X

My baby routine is:
7:30 wake up
11-1pm nap ISH
6pm bedtime
We scrapped his second nap and only went with one middle of the day one as we he was fighting his second nap and waking up early in the morning. :)
thank you, when does he have lunch? Snack before and lunch after his nap? X

6/6:30 wake up
(Breakfast, bottle/snack)
11/11:30 - 1/1:30 nap
(Lunch, dinner, bottle)
7/7:30 bedtime
Yeah we also scrapped the second nap and did 1 big midday nap
do they last ok 6-11.30? I think I’m worried it’s a bit too long for my daughter that’s all… think I should try it, do you go out etc in the morning? Or stay home? X

I thought my little boy was ready to drop a nap as he was refusing his second nap, but we found that he was then only having 30 minutes all day 🙃 because he was overtired. We went back to 2 naps on days he’s at home, at nursery he’ll only have one nap as he’s at fomo baby, but we were advised to let him catch up on sleep the other days. I think there’s a lot of trial and error and totally dependent on your baby!
that’s what I worry about! My daughter goes to nursery 2 days a week, and will too only have about half an hour! Sometimes she won’t go down till 2.30!😫 but night time sleep is still just as bad what ever she sleeps in the day xx

Yeah we have this issue with night time sleep!! But it doesn’t matter if he’s had one nap or 2, 3 hours or 30 minutes. He’s just a pickle 😂

wake between 7-7:30am
nap 12/12:30-2/2:30
bed at 8
we was having the same issue she would wake at 5 then have 2 hour nap and refuse or fight her second one 🥲the first few days are rough but baba soon gets used to it x

Hello,
Food wise, he has a large snack 10am ISH. Warm milk in a cup at 11 before his nap.
Then lunch when he wakes up, medium afternoon snack and dinner at 4:30pm

Yeah, he's had a big wake window for a while, for the past 2 months we've been battling between 1-2 naps, it's taken a bit of time to get there
So we usually,
-Play in his room 45-60 mins when he wakes up
-Breakfast in kitchen for 45-60 mins (I clean whilst he plays in kitchen cupboards/pretend cleans his highchair)
-Play in living room 45-60 mins (I try and do some exercise/get ready for the day if he lets me)
-Then we either play in his room again, go for a walk, park or out shopping/browsing (this is where he has a bottle or snack to keep him going)
-Either back to the house for his nap so I can do some chores, or I stay out, he naps in pram and I have coffee and cake alone somewhere 🧘🏻♀️😂

On the days he would wake from the first nap at 11:30 and refuse the second nap, we brought bedtime forward to 6pm, but then run the risk of him waking up at 5am, or do a split night (wake for 1-3 hours at about 1am)

My little human:
6.30 wake up (this is because we need to get ready for him to go to nursery at 7.30)
11.30 nap (anything from 1-3 hours)
18.30 bedtime.
If he naps later I never let him nap past 16.00 because then the night sleep is bad

Wake up around 7/8
Breakfast
Lunch at 12
Nap at 12:30 ish depending on when lunch is finished
Naps for 2-3 hours
Dinner at 6 ish
Bedtime at 8
We dropped the second nap when she started sleeping longer at the 10am nap and not going to sleep at the afternoon nap

We're all over the place at the moment, at nursery 2 days a week and only has 1 nap as he doesn't like missing out.
At home it's either one or two. If we go out in the morning then he's ready for a nap at 11ish, so I'll let him and then do lunch after.
