I spoke too soon.  After putting them down at 9:50, they were wide awake by 10:10.  :-(  I just couldn't get them to re-settle.  I left them till 10:30 then breastfed them.  They were absolutely wide awake.  I left them longer, to see if they'd settle themselves but got them up at 11am because we had things to do!

They were absolutely fine until I put them down just now at their normal pm nap time (between 1 and 1:30).

Over to the naps board for me I think!!

Well we seem to be doing a bit better.  Morning naps have been better since I've pretty much given up putting them in their cots!  It's actually quite convenient, because it means we can actually go places in the morning if they nap in the car!  They've miraculously been doing good 2 hour stretches in the afternoon, which is fab.  I've been putting them down later - more like 2pm - and giving them a bottle beforehand. 

And the last two nights, we've had only one wake-up between 7pm and 6am, at around 1:30.  They down a 7ozs bottle and then go straight back to sleep.  So we seem to have consolidated the dreamfeed and other night feed(s).

It's only been 2 nights though so I'm not counting my chickens just yet!  Naps are definitely better though.  This morning, I'm home and they went down in the cots at just past 10 (later than I used to put them down) with just a couple of minutes grumbling from one of them, and they'd still asleep over an hour later, although I did have to pop in and replace a dummy about 30 mins ago.

Definitely things are looking better!

Thanks so much for your help and concern.

Vicky

Vicky, that sounds great! 
My dd is starting to fight her morning nap as well.  We were home a good stretch over the Thanksgiving holiday, and she is doing a gooood 3.5hr A time for the first wake up, and even then still fights her AM nap.  I am afraid she is going to try to transition to 1 nap by wanting her am nap later and later.  It's just hard because she's at the sitter's house.  Glad you are having some results, and are getting out of the house some to boot!  Good for you!

And he very nearly did as well last night too!!  Wednesday night he went from 7pm to 6am without a stir.  Last night from 7pm to 5:30.  Both days he went back to sleep till 7am, after a breastfeed.  Soooo wonderful having just one less wake-up to deal with!

Just got to work on Kayden doing the same now!!
