I am interested to know how everyone else manages to get their 4 month old to nap during the day, successfully!
My DD will only cat-nap up to 5/6 times a day for about 20-30 minutes each. She can only stay awake for about 1-2 hours before needing to close her eyes. I really want her to get into a better routine of napping for about 1-2 hours in the morning and afternoon with a shorter 30 minute nap in the evening (tea time).
She has always been quite good with bedtime. She goes down between 8/9pm and wakes between 7/8:30am with just one wake up for a feed, although this is changing now with the dreaded four month regression and she is waking 3/4 times a night for an extra feed or chat!
Am I destined for a poor sleeper? I was lucky first time as my DS aged three loved sleep and slept 1-2 hours in the morning and afternoon with the shorter nap at tea time. I know all children are different but she ends up having loads of meltdowns because she isn't (IMHO) getting enough sleep and certainly not getting through s complete sleep cycle.
