Anyone got the book to hand, what does she suggest "daytime naps" for 9.5Month Olds please???

9/930 - 45 min
12.30 - 2 hrs

Wow a nap at 9am?! What craziness is this?

What time are you meant to wake up to be napping by that time?!

hahahahaha

(sorry op )

I've not read GF but my baby (same age) has his morning nap around 9. He sleeps from 7.30 until around 6 at night.

Hiya journey! Gina- my specialist subject
For 9.5 mths she suggests a nap of no more than 30 mins as near to 9.30am as possible.
Lunchtime nap is then 12.30-2.30,but I've noticed my DD is happier at going down nearer 1pm.

Filo and anything, that's based on a wake-up time of around 7am, but my friends who are also doing Gina stick to those nap times even if their LOs have woken up earlier.

Blimey. Seems so early!

its the early morning starts that get me. 6am. 7am. nope baby, that is night time

Sanfairyanne I used to think so too! When does your baby go to bed/ get up? A 6/7 wake up works for me because come December I'll be back at work and will have to drop DD at the childminder's by 8.

Ok cool! Sounds like I need to cut short the 9am nap to extend the lunchtime one.

Will start from today :)

Gina works for me! Sorry but she really does, DS is 7-7 ... Morning & lunchtime nap 9.5mths. Gina routine since 4.5mths. So sounds like I need to shorten the 9am one & stretch out till 12:30pm instead of 12pm .... Agreed???

Thanks all!

She works for me too journey
Yep have a go at pushing the MN to 9.30 and then LTN 12.30.
DD has 20-25 mins MN- any more and the LTN goes squiffy. X

it usually works for me too. up at 6-7, nap at 9ish for 45 mins max, nap at 1230. recently this is usually 2 hours though goes in phases

Mine gets up at 530 (bed at 730), but dropped the morning nap altogether around 9 months, and has 90 min at 1200.
