Best way to catch up on OT for 21.5mo
« on: July 05, 2014, 08:17:08 am »
Hi

Got an OT build up after a minor illness and couple of weeks of rubbish naps at nursery and now EWs.

Normal routine is
WU 5.45
Nap 1 for 1hr45
Bed - asleep by 7 (bring forward by 20 mins if rubbish nap)

Trying to catch up today after a 5.15 WU by car nap for 20 mins now at 9am (sat here typing while he sleeps!) then nap at normal time today. But should I do EBT aswell? IME an early bed rarely works so not sure of the best way to catch up!

Hi!

We would have done something like this to catch up:

WU: 5.15
Car nap: 9-9.20am
Nap: 12/12.30 for up to 2h
BT: 6.15pm (asleep by)

Thanks. It's the 6.15 bed I am concerned about as early bed hardly ever goes well - will give it a try though!

Well, I think only you can judge that. I always work on the basis that they shouldht be longer than 13h but you know what works best for you LO x
