My dd 16 mo has never been a big napper. She was sleeping 1hr at 10am and then 40mins-1hr at about 2.30pm/3pm then bed at 7.30am.
I decided to try the 2-1 nap transition for a couple of reasons-
- dd never really seemed tired at nap times
- She won't sleep in pushchair so was having to rush back from wherever we were for pm nap which was often just 40mins!
- She started waking at 5.30am.
Anyway, we are 3 days in now and I don't know if I should continue or go back to the 2 naps.
Day 1 - nap 12.30-1.45, in bed 6.30, asleep by 7pm woke at 7am. Great!
Day 2 nap - 12.35-1.55 in bed asleep by 7. Woke and moaned on and off from 6ish.
Day 3 - nap 12.30-2.30 (stirred at 1.45). Bed asleep by 7.10pm - moaned on and off through the night. Awake from 1.30-3.30am!! Moaning on and off from 6am. Fully awake at 6.45am.
Does this sount like OT? Even though she slept for 2hrs at nap time? Should I go back to naps or just persevere with the 1 nap and she will eventually get into this new routine?
She is my PFB so not sure if this is what usually happens at 2-1 nap transition or not.
Thanks for all your help.
