Dropping to 2 naps

When did this happen for you? My baby is 7.5m and still on 3 naps, and doesn’t really resist them either however is starting to wake early 5am, tho I can usually try get them back till 6/6.30am. Theyve never slept right through but used to wake around 2/3am for a resettle and I wondered if they moved to 2 naps maybe it would help? But hard to know if there is no current nap resistance …. however they did used to only nap 45 mins and over the past 3 weeks they’ve lengthened nap 1 and 2 to over and hour.

rough day might be this
6am wake
8.30 nap for one hour 15
12.15/30 nap for another hour 15
4.15 nap for 30 mins
7.30 bed

i guess to make a 2 nap schedule work I need to lengthen wake windows by 10/15 mins and then an early bedtime temporarily ? Or do I wait for more cues? It seems most babies are dropping the third one by now but my baby always seems tired 😅😂 he’s quite nap sensitive!
