This may be a long one ladies....
I'm not sure if the fight is worth my energy. I have a 3 mo DS who I started on BW while on ML but I'm back at work and he's in daycare during the day. I was able to establish a good EASY routine and his put-downs to bed are really great. But....he doesn't nap at all during the day at school, maybe 4 or 5 20 minute naps throughout the day. I would be really worried, but he easily goes down at 6:15-6:30 and sleeps until I wake him in the morning around 5:45...if left to his own, he sleeps until 0700 or so and he's in a good mood. He hasn't woken for a night feed for about 2 weeks adn has 5 EBF feeds a day. I know the nap pattern is horrible. Today he has 2 45-60 minute naps and currently is approaching 1 1/2 hours....but he hasn't been fussy all day? Could my child just not need long naps? Initially I thought it was the daycare environment and as he adapted to it, he would start sleeping better there. Part of me isn't too concerned....hoping as he grows into 4 hour EASY he will consolidate into 2 good naps. Or is his poor napping now a predictor for BIG problems down the road....i guess that's my question?? SHould I fight the 45 min nap now...or wait until he shows signs that he needs better napping??? Sorry for the length.
