  • Gabe naps as and when really, but we stopped his nap before bedtime because he always thought it WAS bedtime (his last nap was at about 5pm) and would sleep until 5am the next morning so we'd always end up waking him from it and then he wouldn't sleep through, so we just dropped that nap as he didn't need it.
    He sleeps a lot better now cos he's tired out when we put him down to bed. He is 8.5 months...
  • What time is bedtime? Barney is 6 months and he is awake from his last nap no later than 5.30, he goes to bed at 7.30. He doesn't always have this nap now, it just depends how long he sleeps for at lunch time.

  • Charlotte is 1 and is in bed at 7.30. She doesn't normally have an afternoon nap now but when she did I wouldn't let her sleep after 4pm.
  • I tend to just see how the day goes as it's always different. His bedtime is anywhere between 6 and 7.30, so if he's tired around 5, I let him nap for a short time, then bath him when he wakes up and pop him back into bed which he's fine with. If he doesnt get tired till 6, then I start bath time etc when I notice he's getting grumpy and he goes straight to bed for the night, waking for feeds. xxx
