Hi. On the advice of my HV, I moved my 7.5mo onto 3 meals as of Wednesday morning. Since then, he has hardly napped during the day.
Normally he would sleep for around 1-1.5 hours after breakfast then around 1.5 hours after lunch. Now that the schedule has changed a bit because of fitting in 3 meals rather than 2, he's only managing around half an hour of napping each time before waking up crying. He's still tired as he'll rub his eyes and be unhappy but doesn't seem to be able to settle.
Have I moved him onto 3 meals too soon for his system to deal with? Or could it just be that he needs to adapt to the slight change in meal/nap times? There's also a bit of development going on this week - learnt to sit up from lying down and starting to pull himself up on things (me!).
Thanks

Gone from 2 to 3 meals at 7.5m - is this why naps have gone out the window?
