addison is 8 months.
she goes to bed around 9pm. she wakes up a few hours later and i nurse her . she wakes again 2-3am, i put her in bed with me, she nurses off and on till 7am when she is up for the day UGH lol.
she naps in the am for 45 min or so
she naps in the afternoon for 1.5-2 hours and it really can be different times she goes down. its been weird lately, she took 2 naps yest. afternoon!
If she wakes up from her 3-4 nap and she gets tired early in the eveningEvening primrose I will put her to bed at 7:30pm and then she will wake up at 7:00am.
I have no idea how many or for how long he napped at the daycare he was at.. all the did was check off whether or not he took a nap in the a.m. and/or p.m.
in the eveningsEvening primrose he would often take some really late naps like at 6 to 7.. so I was really curious if others took naps that late..
on the weekends, he usually takes a 1 to 2 hour nap in the morning.... a 1 to 1.5 hour nap later in the afternoon... and maybe another 30min to an hour nap later that eveningEvening primrose.
Kelly.. do not feel that way at all... Jacob had NO consistent sleepingSleeping difficulty pattern until the 11th week.. he just started falling asleep all on his own around 8ish... and the day nap pattern just started recently and he is 5.5 months...

at Jacob's age, dd used to take an eveningEvening primrose nap. Even if she napped from 6-7, she would still go to bed at the same time- between 8 and 9. She stopped the late eveningEvening primrose nap around 9 months. This was in addition to an AM and afternoon nap.

Everybody.. thanks for all the good info... I struggled with the late nap concept.. I kept going backBack pain - low Back strain treatment and forth.. letting him take the nap and then trying to keep him up.... I think he does better with the nap also... If I don't allow him the nap, he seems too tired and doesn't get his last meal in... He isn't a big eater, so I like to make sure I get every ounce in him that I can..
Laznacko,
Don't you worry.. it'll happen... Jacob didn't have a sleepingSleeping difficulty patter at all until 11wks.. it happened really all of a sudden.. prior to that, he would wake every 2 to 3 hours...
8-9 hours a night
9-9:30 pm
2 naps - about 1 1/2 - 2 hours long.
Sometimes it's from 3-4 or 6-7 pm for the last nap.
Hope that helps.
He goes to bed at 7p sometimes 8p and sleeps until 6am.
(weekends he'll sleep until 7am)
He takes one morning nap for an hour and half - usually 2hrs from when he woke up
But lately at daycare it's been 9a-10a
Then another nap from 1p-2:30-3:00p
He does still wake up in the middle of the night for a 6 oz bottle but I don't mind. He chugs it and goes back to bed. (He does this middle of the night wake up 3 nights a week...then sleeps straight through 4nights a week)
Well, I don't have a choice. The nights he's up until 8p...is because I forced him.
He would go to bed at 6p if he could...and he did last night.
Went to bed at 6p and woke up at 9:30p because he peed himself...and then back to sleep until 6am
He just loves his sleep.
I get home with the kids at 4p...so it's nice. Like I still got a full 2 hrs with him even at the 6p bedtime...but he is typically 7pm.
she goes to bed around 9pm. she wakes up a few hours later and i nurse her . she wakes again 2-3am, i put her in bed with me, she nurses off and on till 7am when she is up for the day UGH lol.
she naps in the am for 45 min or so
she naps in the afternoon for 1.5-2 hours and it really can be different times she goes down. its been weird lately, she took 2 naps yest. afternoon!
She averages about 9 hours a night
We put her down when we go to bed around 10 or so.
Believe it or not her longest nap time is in the morning after her first feeding, she usually wakes at 7 or there-abouts. She will nurse, then sleep another 2 hours. She takes short naps at the end of each cycle, then she wakes and I feed her again.
Usually Ava takes her last nap at around 7.. that is her fussiest time of the day.. other than that she is a pretty happy baby. :)
sleeps about 7-8 hours a night then she will have a diaper change eat and go back to sleep for another 3 hours
doesn't really have a nap schedule she naps when ever she wants but almost always is asleep around 1 and sleeps about 2 hours i have to wake her up infact she will sleep all day and all night if i let her.
she is usually in bed by 10-10:30
11-12 hrs waking up once usually takes a bottle and goes right back down
7pm (6:30-8pm)
nap 10:30-1, I think when I am done watching the other kids he will start taking two again. I think they keep him awake.
I dont let AJ sleep past 4pm otherwise he is keeping me up past 10 or 11.
What I found was helpful was to track how much time he could spend awake and adjust everything from there. When I did this I noticed he could stay awake for 4 hrs. Once 4 hrs hit he was out nomatter where he was or what he was doing. So If I wanted him in bed by 8 I know he had to be up around 4 and he would go to bed AROUND 8. Now he is like clock work.
She sleeps from 8:30pm to 8:00am
She takes 2 naps: 1st nap at 11-12 pm , 2nd nap at 3-4pm
If she wakes up from her 3-4 nap and she gets tired early in the evening I will put her to bed at 7:30pm and then she will wake up at 7:00am.
She has been a GREAT sleeper since I put her in her own room, which was about at 9 months. Before that she would be waking up 4 times a night. Now when I put her to bed she lays right down, grabs her blankie and she is off to sleep in no time:)
pandemonium at my house.
Blake is 10 weeks...
Blake sleeps when he feels like it, & eats when he feels like it.
I try to feed him a last time at 11:00 thinking he will sleep most of the night. No matter what time I put him to bed he still has 1 feeding in the night around 2:00.
Up again at around 6-6:30. Sleeps in the swing because he refuses his bed...I think I'm a bad mom, ha ha ha
Jacob goes down between 7:30 and 8:30... during the week I have to get him up, so I wake him at 6:30.... on the weekends he usually sleeps till 8 or sometimes even later.... sometimes he will start fussing real early in the morning and if I give him the paci, he is usually good for another couple of hours.
I have no idea how many or for how long he napped at the daycare he was at.. all the did was check off whether or not he took a nap in the a.m. and/or p.m.

Pertykitty, it seems we are in the same boat. And it seems we are the only one.
