Hi again,
Well we were getting 11hr nights on one nap, but the nap was getting shorter each day, then we had to go away and his whole routine got messed up ending up with less sleep than usual and really unsettled car sleep. Now we are back he has been taking 2hr+ naps the last 3 days, but we are getting NW about 6hrs after BT. One night it was a quick settle, then the second night it took 2hrs - he was quiet and desperately trying to get back to sleep the whole time, but just couldn't quite get there. Last night it took about 30min to get him back down. Do you think it is just build up of OT from being away? He is doing about a 13hr day and has taken his nap anywhere from 4 - 5hrs after wu depending on how tired he seemed (the 4hr was when he fell asleep in his lunch bless him). He has been teething on and off, but it doesn't seem to be the problem.
I realise each LO is different, but what kind of day should we aim for in terms of day length and a times either side of the nap? I get confused because everyone seems to talk in terms of the time of nap and as our day is a good couple or three hours later than most it can be difficult to pull out the info sometimes.
Thanks x
