Dropping naps

[paz479]

Hi , baby just turned 7 months. She currently sleeps 11-12 hours at night (sometimes one night feed) and she has 3 naps a day. Problem is she only naps for 40/45 minutes sometimes just 30 minutes. so am I meant transition to 2 naps yet? Usually a nap at 9/12.30/3.30 . So usually get around 2 hours in the day time. Shall I cut the last nap out now or keep it as it is untill she naps for longer? Bed times are getting a little harder then normal..... not sure if it's the naps or the teeth 🤷‍♀️

My son dropped is later nap at that age he just decided one day he didn't want it. Tried and tried to get him to sleep but he wouldn't go so gave up and that was that.

Do you think she's ready, does she fight her naps/bedtime?

Also forgot to say my sons nap just got longer. He used to have 30 min on each nap now has one for 1hour and 30 minutes.

well she's alway fought her naps! I have to bounce her to sleep so it's hard to tell. But she usually goes off within 10 minutes. Maybe if I wait for her naps to get longer then drop the last one then?

You could try slowly stretching her wake time to see if she then does a longer sleep for you? Otherwise I wouldn't panic. My first didn't really drop it til 8 months and he was doing 2 big naps and still sleeping at night. Just maybe accept a slightly later bed time until third nap is dropped.x
