Hi!!
Update: last night went well: I shortened is A and he slept until almost 1 am, fed, slept until 5:30, fed, and slept until 7:30! He did a 12 hour night with two NF and no EMW!!!! I'm estatic!
Today is a weird day since I'm having family over. I'm actually holding my son as we speak while he naps since he flat out was refusing. Maybe OS from family and not enough windown.
I have a question: I let him nap for an hour in the am knowing he would have a shorter pm nap since family is here. What would have been a good A to shoot for afterwards. I tried aiming for 3hr. I nursed him, then did his nap routine and laid him down. It was a epic fail! He cried hysterically for a half hour while I did PU/PD. Finally I held him because he was so wired and hysterical. It took me an additional 10 minutes of holding him for him to calm down and fall asleep. His A ended up being 3:40ish. He was clearly OT in the end which leads me to believe either A. He was OS then OT, or B. 3 hrs was too short of an A after an hour long nap and he was UT then became OT.
So in general given the A times of my DS, what would be a good A to shoot for if he naps for an hour in am?
Thank you again for all your amazing advice!
