Nap Schedule?

Question

Are you LOs on a timed nap schedule- i.e. 8:00, 11:00 etc...
Or do you go by a certain amount of time awake? So maybe 2 hrs of wake time and then nap?

I've been using the second and our naps are usually similar within maybe about an hr variation- but is it time to get on a more solid schedule now that LO is staying with my MIL and a nanny when I'm at work? I feel like it's easier for them to have a more set schedule?
Thanks ladies!!

Answer

My MIL watches our LO weekdays from 7am to 630pm. He isn't on a nap schedule but is routine about getting tired after being awake for 2 hours. So that's what his schedule is based on. I try to feed him at set times though so it kind of puts everything in motion for wake eat play and then nap. His naps are anywhere from 30mins to 2 hrs. Since his nap length varies it's hard to put him on a nap schedule. We just know that after 2 hrs it's time to wind down for a nap

Answer

He naps after being awake for 2 hours  but the naps vary in length  (30-90 minutes) so not at set times

Answer

My son goes down at 8-9pm up at 8:30 am the naps at 11am,  2pm and sometimes a short nap at 6pm starting to nap less tho

Answer

My son unfortunately is one of those babies that refuses to nap at all during the day. I'll be lucky if he goes down for 20 minutes during the afternoon. A great day will be if he is super tired and will be pass out for an hour because he's so tired and his body gives up. Lol 😆

Answer

My son naps every 3 hours. Goes to bed at 10 pm and wakes up at 7-8 am

Answer

I go by how long she has been up. I have no chance getting her down at a certain time she needs to be tired

Answer

Not really a schedule but my 5 month old gets tired every  2 1/2 - 3 hours.. so if he wakes up at 7, he will take a short nap around 9/9:30, less than an hour long.. then sleep again around 12 or 1, another nap around 3 or 4, bath then asleep around 8

Answer

Kind of a combo. We just sort of fell into 8, 11, 3, 5:30.....the 11 nap is usually at least 1.5 hrs.
