8:30 would be too early asleep for Zara after a 2 hour nap - she too probably wouldn't ahve been tired enough to sleep later.
Here a two hour nap usually means not asleep til more like 9:30 (but even as late as 10:30, man do I get some reading done LOL).
We are down to the only way she will fall asleep for nap now is if I sit with her (unless it is like 3-4pm then she can fall asleep on her own, but I prefer she doesn't do that LOL). Nap length varies. On a 45 min nap, still not asleep til about 8:30, but will then sleep later, usually 7/7:30. Long nap say 2 hours, and definitely not asleep before 9:30, could be as late as 10:30. Wakeup the same.
Just rolling with the punches here.
Frustratingly, am already at the stage of early 2-1 days with Hugh - to fit the naps in, need shorter nights, or need at least one of the naps to be short.....he isn't quite 8 mo yet. and it is SO NOT FAIR that I have to deal with both of these transitions at once!
