Hello
My lo just turned 8 months today. I cannot seem to figure out an appropriate A time after her first nap. She keeps taking a 45 minute afternoon nap........
E - 7am
A
S - in crib at 9:10 - falls asleep fast.
E - 11:00
A
S - in crib at 1:30
And she is waking at 2:15ish.....
which forces me to either get her to catnap again or stick it out until bedtime. She sleeps straight through the night always, so NW are not an issue regardless of naps.
I have tried decreasing A time to only 2 hours and that didnt work. So Ive then tried 2.5 hours of A time and she still only took the 45 minute nap. I cannot figure out OT or UT.
I feel like an 8 mo should be able to go longer, but she seems to get tired fast. For example, today after being up for 2.5 hours (after having a good morning nap) she immediately fell asleep...............but then still only napped for 45 minutes.
Thoughts? and thank you!
