Two naps?

Question

Anyone starting to drop down to just two long naps yet? 
Lincoln is 24 weeks and he takes two long naps and one little 30 minute nap. But I’m wondering if we’re getting close to just having two if maybe that’ll help him sleep more at night . 
If I can get him to nap 10-12ish and then 230-430 then we may be ready for just two. Thoughts? I can’t remember when babies go down to two. 😂

Answer

Lucky you! My boy is still taking one long nap (1.5hrs) and 2 cat naps. Some times it’s only 4 cat naps. My daughter dropped down to 2 long naps at 7/8 months!

Answer

Mine will sometimes only take 2 if they are long naps. Yesterday he took 2 naps that were two hours each and there just wasn't time for a 3rd. He's 5 months.

Answer

Since starting daycare we’re on 2. She only takes one nap at daycare for an hour (why? Why not 2? I don’t know.) but then I put her down at home for one that can go from 30 min to 2 hours (only 2 data points so far). 
It seems to be working for us. I was only up last night once for pacifier duty at 2am and she went to sleep at 7. Similar to you we did a bottle at 3:45 am (aiming for 5 am but DLS is a factor) and then back to sleep for 2ish hours.  
🤷🏼‍♀️ somehow at daycare she’s awake for MANY hours before going down for a nap. Idk how they manage that but if she’s fussy that’s on them to figure out and I just manage that second nap to make sure she’s getting sleep. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Answer

I think we dropped down to 2 at like 6-7 months

Answer

I think the wake windows are still relatively short for a while. Mine only ever takes 30 minute naps, so she gets about 4 a day. Thankfully she sleeps decently well at night, though.

Answer

My baby is 21weeks and has gone down lately to just two naps a day. One could range from 45 minutes to 3 hours. She is more of a cat napper
