Do your babies usually nap around the same time daily?

Question

I always hear people say stuff like "it's time for her 9:00am nap" or "she takes her last nap at 3pm" etc.

My baby's naps vary day to day. It all depends. I put her down for a nap when she's showing signs that she's tired. But it's never the same time everyday. It all depends on what time she wakes and how long each nap is. The only kind of "structure" I have to my day is she's usually awake for 1.5 to 2.5 hours and then it's naptime. This cycle repeats throughout the day at varying time.

Answer

My boys are more time period nappers. For example they'll nap about 2 hours after they wake up. So anywhere from 730am-9am then another around noonish so anywhere between 11-1 honestly depending on 1st nap length and time. Then the last one mid-afternoon. I just pay attention to their tired cues. Plus even if they both woke up at 7 they might not both nap at 9. Maybe one at 8 one at 9. I don't push naps because it's too exhausting and they give me cues when they're ready.

Answer

I voted 'yes around the same time,' but our little one's nap schedule is the same - based off when he last woke up he can be up from 1.5 - 2 hours before getting cranky. Regardless though the naps are about the same time every day. He naps 3 - 4 times per day with the late afternoon nap varying.

Answer

We have morning nap and afternoon nap, no set times and if she falls asleep some other time it's no big drama as long as she's still a happy kid :)

Answer

We are definitely not on a schedule; however, I would say we are on a routine-ish. My son usually is ready for a nap every 1.5 of wake time. He only sleeps for about 30 minutes. So depending on when he wakes, depends on when his first nap will be. He usually takes about 5 naps a day.

Answer

When my baby is home she typically naps around the same time everyday, including a 2.5-3 hour nap at about mid-day.  When she's at the babysitter she is completely different and will only take short naps. The babysitter is off this week, so she's home all week and you can tell how happy she is.

Answer

I'm trying to get my baby on a schedule but his naps are still all over the place too. Some days 3, some days 4. Depends on the length of the nap. His bed time is usually around the same time though.
