Anyone in the same boat

I’m in the exact same boat, my 4 month old girl naps for 38 mins, we have the occasional 45-1 hour but they’re getting rarer by the day😂🥹

My first was a 22min napper until he dropped to 1 nap around 14months old then that was about 45mins-1hour. I tried everything but he just never wanted to sleep longer than that, it was crap watching all my friends babies have these lovely long naps and feeling so jealous ☹️ I found it a bit easier once I just accepted it for what it was and worked out the best ways I could rest / do something I enjoyed in those 22mins. If it’s any consolation, he’s now nearly 2.5yo and it feels like that phase passed in the blink of an eye, even though it felt long when I was going through it. Sending love & hoping for you that his naps lengthen earlier than ours did xx

Try keeping him awake for longer and spacing out his naps evenly. Make sure you are creating a good nap/sleep environment ie dark room, white noise, clean nappy,fed

Have you started him on puree at all? I found after starting my little girl on puree her sleep settled a lot more

It’s because 40 mins is one sleep cycle and they need to learn to link there sleep cycles, once they come out of the first 3 month newborn stage and become more aware it’s really hard for them. My little boy is 4 months find it much easier doing his day sleeps in the pram so he will do 9-10.30 am and then 12.30-3pm in his pram even if it’s just in the utility room and not on a walk but he really struggles to sleep in his cot during the day but fine at night!
