3.5 EASY and naps

[corrina01]

I am putting my lo on a 3.5 EASY, she can only stay awake for 1hr 30mins, I sometimes can stretch it to 1hr 40mins but she starts fussing for her bed.  She goes off to sleep as soon as her head touches the mattress.  Will it affect her nightime sleep if she has 3, 2 hour naps?  She wakes after 45 mins but the rest of her nap, is restless as she gets her arms out of the swaddle, but she doesn't always cry.  She is 17 weeks old.

Will it affect her nightime sleep if she has 3, 2 hour naps? She wakes after 45 mins but the rest of her nap, is restless as she gets her arms out of the swaddle, but she doesn't always cry. She is 17 weeks old.

I am sorry, but i am confused (i am tired tonight) - does she take 45min for all naps?  Maybe you can post the schedule you are thinking of and we can see if we can help.

As for night sleep affected - each LO is different but if she is getting enough sleep from day, nighttime and is not getting overtired before sleep she should be fine.

Hope that helps.
