Just a quick hello - will be back later properly but I have 2 lsn LOs. Lily is slightly lsn and Jack is very lsn.  I know from talking to other mummies of lsn babies that there are definite similarities between them. Good idea for a thread - I've considered starting one like this many times but never quite gotten round to it.

Almost 3h A in the morning... Will see how the first nap will go and what will happen later. Let's see if we have a chance for 2 naps today. If not... DH is at home early and there will be both of us fighting with an OT baby in the evening:P.

We did it... 2 naps and 3,5h of total day sleep. More than on 3 naps btw and blocked in two nice long naps. 11,5h of night sleep. No meltdown however tired for every single nap and tired for bedtime. Two brief NWs with crying but I just shhhhh and he got back to sleep. Don't even know if I was needed as the intervention lasted 15sec. Probably OT but he was waking the same when on 3 naps, so whatever. I know that I am keeping him awake for a loooong time but he settles like a dream for naps, sleeps soundly 1,5h-2h and is in a good mood in the afternoon what makes me believe that's a right direction.

Still:( feel a bit guilty for tiring him out so much but hope it will be better for him.

My DS1 was LSN and went to one nap at 7 months. Thought my DD2 was LSN, but now her A times are all over the place. Poor napping.  He went to 2 naps at 5 months. Still is LSN. Sleeps maybe 10.5 hours at night and then will lie in his crib until I get him at 7am entertaining himself. Even at 27 months sometimes does pretty well without a nap at all- just "quiet time" in his crib. To tell you the truth, I love LSN babies and hate naps. Just still need to figure out my DD2...

That's what I think is by far the best thing about lsn babies - you get through the napping stage quicker :) I hate naps too - it's so much easier and free-er when you don't have to factor naps in. Every time jacks naps/ sleep stresses me out I think "this time in a year we'll be done with them"!
