Ds is just over 8m. He still naps every 2 hours in the day.... Tbh he sometimes doesn't make it 2hrs, sometimes only 90 mins Blush
His naps are pretty decent, 40 ish mins if dd toddler about or if dd is at nursery then he will nap for about 1hr 20 every 2 hours!! He goes to bed easily at 7 ish and sleeps fairly well till 7 am.
My issue is I am returning to work soon part time and his care will be split between relatives and nursery. I can't see him getting to nap every 2 hrs whilst I am work. People have stuff to do in the day and can't always be putting him down for nap. He does sleep fine in buggy and car but doesn't transfer well so I have visions of him having tonnes of 5 min naps
And being well grumpy. Did anyone have similar? Did they cope? Should be be going longer awake at this age???

My 20mo naps for 2 hours every afternoon and sleeps 12 hours at night. I really appreciate the break. If we go on holiday he does fine will whatever he gets in the car or buggy. I wouldn't worry too much about it, babies are very adaptable.
