Question about nap length when they wake up in middle

[Happy 2B a Mommy]

My question is. If my baby say is having a 2 hour nap and I would wake him normally after 2 hours....

If he wakes up in middle and say it takes me 20 minutes to put him back to sleep can I then add 20 minutes to the end of the nap before I wake him so that he actually sleeps for 2 whole hours? Provided it will not go into feeding time...

How old is LO?  Any disrupted nap is not going to be as restorative as a good, peaceful one - especially if the resettle takes longer than a few mins...

Maybe post a typical day and we can see if you just need a small change to get baby to nap without a resettle?

He's 4 months thank G-d. He is sleeping an hour and 45 min. So I'm not too worried. I am working on my schedule in the pupd forum so was just asking a general question. Because after an hour and 45 min I could just get him up but say I put him back to sleep can I then let him sleep the amount of time it took him to go back to sleep?

If he naps longer than 1 hr 30 mins, I would get him up.  Otherwise, it will just mess your routine.. you really don't want to wake baby if you don't have to at this age...
