Well, it is the age for it :(

Its quite possible you'll have to go for a morning CN and a long PM nap. It can last a long time but it can backfire badly if they refuse the PM nap after a CN as you can imagine. Otherwise, you could have a short 1 nap day and a couple of long 2 nap days to get back to reasonable BT/WU but that can really mess with some kids who need a consistent BT. I guess best to do that as the days get longer if you're going to though.

What are their EASYs at the moment? Might be that the PM nap can go a bit later and avoid too much change..

I think they could handle one nap as long as they had a reasonable amount of sleep during the day.

EASY for the last couple of months

7wu
7:15 milk
9:15/30 b/fast
11:15 sleep 1.5hrs
12:45/00 lunch
15:30 milk
16:45 sleep
17:30 dinner
19:30 milk
20:15 bed

Fair enough I'd try maybe a slightly later nap if you're going for a single long nap and alternate with the two nap day for a little while and see how they go. You're not going to know how one nap will go until you try...

Ok will give it a try. They refused 11:15 nap and fell asleep at 11:30-1 going to go for early b/time and try again tom for 11:30 and try push out over the next few days. What time of do u think to manage a reasonable day and b/ time/ sleep length?

Probably if you can get a 2hr nap, it'd look something like this:
7 - WU
11:45 - nap
5:30/6pm - BT (depending on how they're going)

Then a 6am WU would be reasonable so worth throwing in a longer day with 2 naps the next day to shift WU later again.

Ok will give it a go.with no sleep yesterday put them to bed at 6:30 as it was a rush and getting 6:30 wu this morning but I've left them chatting away as I need to get ready for work. Eshpuld I go 6:30 or 7wu?

I'm not so sure after the 2hrs they will be ready for bed as before they were doing 1.5 hrs sleep and refusing 4hrs A time for the catnap.

Yep, fair enough, you can make it later, of course. Don't underestimate how much that extra A time before the nap will change things too.

Ok will keep that in mind. Absolutely refused to go to sleep at 11:30 and fell asleep at 11:45. Lewis slept for the full 2hrs and Leo slept 1hr 50 and cried when going to sleep maybe not ready yet?

Went for 6pm b/time totally refused it, just keeping an eye on them as see how they go.

I may have been wrong earlier...  They had dinner around 5pm. Got them ready for bed didn't think they would be interested in milk so I put them to bed nope! They were still hungry!

I've been trying to sort out a new routine thought this might be ok.

7wu
7:30 milk
9:15 b/fast
11 lunch
11:45 sleep (2hrs)
14:00 milk
16:00 dinner
18:00 milk
Think bed straight after milk like you suggested, I'm hoping last nights problem wasn't UT

What do u think?

We have been going with 11:45 for naps and they both but mainly Leo has been crying when I put them down and they still sleep 2hrs.

When it comes to b/time they don't seem quite ready at 6 and I think 6:15 might be the answer. Nights have been good for Lewis with very little nws but Leo on the other hand has been a nightmare. Either too early for bed or too much A time. Waking anything from 1hr up to 11pm and sometimes around 4am and being very unsettled taking a few times to resettle. We r getting 12+ nights though which is good waking if not woke at 7😊

Good day yesterday but lewis woke 5:30 tried to settle him for an he and he wasn't having it at all. Very upset, I thought UT?

He also woke Leo in the meantime, starting our day 6:30.

Leo seems to need that touch more sleep out of the two of them. DYT he'll settle into it? He usually has just taken a little longer to settle than Lewis, hasn't he?

I'd be surprised if UT, maybe a dream or something - 11hr+ night not really likely to be UT or OT, yk?

Yeah I think just early days for now and I feel we haven't had much of a chance to settle into this new routine properly. Too much going on colds, Leo has hurt his leg also and on a stookie, new teeth and looks like Leo has a virus this morning and lewis starting to crawl so lots going on at the moment!
