Hi Jennifer,
Well Im no expert, but I do have that issue at times with my lo. I usually try to hold off as long as I can by turning his mobile on, or even trying to get him back to sleep. My lo seems to like 30-45 minute naps from 11 am onwards....I try to get him back to sleep..but its not the easiest thing..nor has it worked yet. Still trying..

Neve treat others as you yourself would not like to be treated.

As long as he isn't showing hunger signs, you can just treat it like activity time. Of course, I'd always try to get Tyler back to sleep first, but it usually didn't work. :roll: Sometimes EASY looked more like EASAE. I just kept to his normal feeding schedule, tweaking it by a few min if needed to avoid feeding right before a nap (I'd throw in just a few min of activity afterward) or Tyler getting hungry during a nap. HTH!
