So, Medi had one nap (2.5 hr) yesterday, in bed at 6:45 and slept till 6.  I'd call that a success but then today I didn't know what to do.  So she had about 20 minutes in the morning and 1hr 15 this afternoon. But it took her 20 minutes to fall asleep tonight.
I'm happy for her to have one nap if she wakes at 6:30, but what if she wakes earlier?  That is my dilemma!

So today she was up at 4:45 again. I think that second nap is going to have to go. But how, when she's waking so early ???

She actually did go back to sleep yesterday. It took her an hour though. Then she had one nap.
So I guess I am just going to go for it now!  My problem is I'm too indecisive! I just want someone to tell me what to do lol. But I think, because she naps so well, one long nap is going to suit her better than two short ones. I hope so anyway ;)

Spencer was like that with one long nap - 3 hours and still slept at night! Was amazing. Fx Medi does well on one nap too!

Day three today. She did ew this morning at 5:40, but I think she dozed on and off for another half an hour. She was pretty tired when I put her down at 11 and then she pooed and so there were a few tears before she got herself off. My aim is
Wu 6.30
Nap 11:30-1:30
Bt 6:30

So far it's been fine, she's good and tired going down and sleeping better at night (jinx!). The next couple of days will tell I think, if she gets ot or starts ew again.

following this because we are having a similar situation... however juniper is just 12 weeks old, so it is kind of a different bag.
EW at 5:30 for the past few days... i'm crossing my fingers that it's just related to her 3 month growth spurt and wonder week.
(she used wake at 5:30 to eat but then sleep back until 8 or so!... now she won't settle down.)

We had this around then too. I put it down to gas pains and just tried to burp her properly after all her nf.

We had three one nap days in a row but last night she went to bed at 6 so of course at 5:30 today she was wide awake and happy as Larry. So today she had 20 minutes in the morning and about 1hr 45 in the afternoon. Bt was 6:45. I don't really want to chop and change so am going to forge ahead with one nap if at all possible.

Sounds like a good plan! We have the odd 15 min morning snooze in the carrier or stroller still, but usually it is still early enough not to bother the nap and I just chop 15 min off of it. Last night she did better but was after a 7 hr A to bed with 2 parties, swimming and a bbq! Can't do that every day unfortunately :P

We seem to be managing 3 one nap days, then she has a ew, then a long two nap day or two, then back to one nap days. Tbh I much prefer the one nap days as the two nap days are so long. I think I'm just going to have to stick with the one nap days from now on. It won't be pretty when she has an ew but I think I just need to push on now. Going to have nap no earlier than 11:30 and bt no earlier than 6:30. Wish me luck. ;)

They've been two hours apart from yesterday with mil when she did about 1hr 20. But she's then doing about 11.5 hr nights as well so overall she is getting more sleep I think.

It's been a few weeks now since we went to one nap. It's been going fairly well on the whole. We still get long NW every few days and the odd ew but on average she's getting 12.5-13 hr sleep and she's happy enough. My next job is to drop her night feed but I'm dreading it.
