Do you always follow wake windows even if baby doesn't seem tired?

Question

Baby wake window is 1.5-2 hours for 3 months I believe. But sometimes when she's been up that long, she's not fussing, quite content. Should i still be forcing the nap?

Answer

I don’t follow anything except his lead. If he seems hungry, tired, playful we do that 🤷🏻‍♀️

Answer

Shoot.  I don’t pay any mind to anything haha. Whoops!  We have our own little schedule that works for us!

Answer

Nah, I used to be super super worried about that cause 1 month old on he would stay away for 3-4 hours at a time and I thought that all babies had to follow this set schedule of how many hours they were awake and whatnot. But he’s been growing fine, hitting all his milestones, and even started sleeping all the way through the night with a very minimal bedtime routine, so I figure that what he’s doing can’t be all bad. I say let baby take lead, she’ll sleep when she’s tired 😄

Answer

I've found I have to start "winding down" at 2 hours with my son because he'd stay awake all day if I let him! And if he does that he's waayyy over tired and it's terrible
 At that 1.5-2 hour mark I read with him or he plays by himself which usually leads him to a nap

Answer

I doing follow anything except a bedtime. He usually lets us know when he’s had enough and wants to sleep.
