Length of Naps 6-12 months
« on: February 25, 2006, 04:23:35 am »
Since Catherine transitioned from 2x2hrs and 1x1hr to 2x1.5hrs over the last month i have been wondering when another transition will happen? She has always slept 11-12 hrs since 2/3 months and also wonder when she will drop her night sleeping as well as currently she goes down at 7pm and wakes up between 6.30-7am. You see i wasn't expecting her to drop to 2x1.5sleeps for another month so i want to prepared for the next transition.

2x1.5sleeps
  Those are great!  We never got more then 2x1.15 (or hardly).  We also dropped to 2 at 6mos then went back to 2+catnap at 7mos when megan was moving / rocking/ rolling then dropped the catnap again at 9mos.  So it is really hard to say...sorry i didn't answer your question.

Typically, they drop the am nap between 15-18mos, but we started the transition at 13 mos.

Thats ok i have read the sample routines that people have posted and it looks like that most stay on the 2 naps for a while usually 1.5hrs in length. I guess her night sleep will shorten slightly as she gets older and her awake time gets longer.
