Baby sleep help

Naps

My baby is 7 months old and we cannot figure out a nap schedule at all. We did 2 naps for about a week and then she all of sudden went back to 4 naps and then back to 3. I know developmental changes and milestones can mess with sleep but this happens at the end of every month for about 2 weeks. And then she’ll settle into a “schedule” for a week or so and then it’s right back to every days just a guessing game.

She does sleep through the night even though we’ve had more wake ups here lately but she puts her self right back to sleep so we’re grateful for that.

I’d be fine with letting her stay up all day if that’s what she wanted but it’s clearly not as when these phases come through she’s pretty miserable all day from what I’m assuming if because she’s tired.

I don’t care if we don’t have a hard schedule we stick to but it would be nice to understand why one day she can follow wake windows and the very next she can barley make it an hour.

Anyone else’s baby go through this and did they stay like this or it got better the older they got?
