Those with later nap times...
« Reply #15 on: January 08, 2006, 20:41:34 pm »
Xavier has been napping later and later these days too.  It used to be nap from 1 to 3:30/4 pm, but now he won't fall asleep until 2 or 2:30 pm.  In fact, he just fell asleep now (it's 3:30 pm) after tossing and talking in bed for 1.5 hours!!!  DH was going to bring him out of bed only to find him finally asleep.

Some days Xavier won't nap at all - he's only 18 months, so I doubt he's ready for no naps.  On those days, we put him to bed 1/2 hour earlier (7:30 pm), but he has a hard time sleeping, and also ends up waking earlier in the morning.  Which ends up being a good thing, because he's tired enough for a nap in the afternoon, which lets him sleep better at night.  What I don't like is the constant change in schedule - is he going to wake up at 7 or 8 am?  Nap at 1:30 or 3 pm?  Does he only need 1 hour of sleep during the day?   :roll:
