This was our last 2 days

01/03
WU 0610
A 4hr15
S 1025-1235
A 3hr30
S 1605-1620
A 2hr45
BT 1905
NW 0215 bf
NW 0420-0445 apop
WU 0710

02/03
WU 0710
A 4hr15
S 1125-1315
A 4hr
S 1715-1735
A 2hr20
BT 1955
NW 0315 bf
NW 0500-0545 apop
NW 0635-0645 apop
WU 0800

So as you can see we are still getting EW BUT with apop we are getting an 11hr night. With a 4hr morning A we were getting 10-10.5 hr nights and apop was not working. I am thinking I need to push to 4.5hr Abut I am scared because it is a really high A for his age I think...
He has always had high A's but I keep getting scared to push him too much, you know?

I would try pushing the morning nap to 10.30 now.

Average A time for an 11-12mo is 3.5-4.5hrs. That would be in the morning or after a long nap (1.5hrs+). The A would need to be reduced after a CN. Average A times and "Is my baby ready to increase A time?"

Ok we will try 1030 tomorrow. We did 1020 today and I woke her at 1220 so it's leaving us on akward spot for pm nap going to attempt a 20-30 min CN 4-430.

Thanks!

This was our day yesterday
W 530-630 attempted to ap at 630 a later wu but no luck
S 1020-1220 I woke her
S 410-440 I woke her ap in rocker which took 15 mins of rocking to get her to fall asleep
B 730
W 530

10 hr night.

She is also been really fussy around 230 which used to be her nap time. I don't know how she is managing such long A time in the morning but I think with her being in her crib in the dark isn't a full awake time. Should I just let her sleep as long as she wants at 1030 and do Ebt if CN doesn't fit. I feel like our days are getting really long. It is scary how much of an A increase we are at from even a month ago.

So she fell back asleep!!
NW 530-550
Woke at 7!!!

So I'm thinking that I push to 11ish and let her nap. My dh said do 1130 but even on the days she ew at 530 and stays in her crib till 630 and goes down at 1015 that first hour is not a full a time. Thoughts??

We are now on 3 bottles 3 meals and 2 snacks so I'm thinking early lunch and see what happens

What did you do in the end?

My vote would be to go with A times, but that's because my two have always done well with A times and I've seen several people who pushed to one nap early and then ended up wishing they'd stayed with 2.  So, 4hr A, 1.5-2hr nap, 4hr A, CN to get to bed, 2.5-3hr A (depending on CN length), and BT.  However, I've also known people who have pushed to 4.5hr with a long nap at 11-12mo and everything has gone totally fine, so it really depends on the baby.  She seems to handle the long A's just fine when you push her in the morning, so it might be worth a try.  You can always go back to 2 naps here and there when needed.

She went down at 1115 was aiming for 11 but this is out first day of early lunch so it was a bit crazy lol. We will see what happens. If she naps 2 hrs its hard to squeeze a CN in without pushing bt back and I think she needs a 3 hr a after a CN. I guess we will see what happens. P

You can always do a 15-20min CN too just to take the edge off. Then, she'd only need 2hr or so A afterward. FX for you!

Fingers crossed!!!

Tomorrow should I do same nap time or do a times? I have read that once on 1 nap you can do set times again.

I always did A times within reason but then our wake times never varied hugely. If she wakes early can you see how she seems around the A time limit and hold out until the usual nap time if she doesn't seem tired?

We had 11 hr night so woke at 6 and in crib quiet babbles till 630. Cranky today a bit and red cheeks so a tooth maybe coming. I had to get out of the house so went to the gym and dropped at the day care there. They said around 10 she seemed really tired. I put her down at 1115 but I think she either fell asleep for a few mins or was ot or os. She seemed to want to fight going down. We will see what happens. Does ot come then go as body adjusts to new nap time? I'm doubting myself constantly. I'm assuming once she is used to later nap she won't seem tired earlier?

Yes it definitely takes a while for their bodies to adjust, normally 3-7 days we say. Then she should handle it better if you stick with a nap that late every day.
