DC has just turned 17 months. Goes to nursery 2 days/week
If they nap for 2h, they’ll go down easily at 7:45pm and sleep 11h, but it’ll be broken - not quite a party, but they’ll need resettling during the night at some point almost without fail. We’ll then end up waking them at 7 - probably because they’ve been disturbed during the night.
If they nap for 1h20 (which seems to be the going time at nursery and some naps at home), they’ll go down easily at 7:45pm and sleep 11h straight through, waking naturally between 6:30 and 7.
1h20 feels like a short nap, but after 3 weeks of tracking, their night sleep is definitely better on the short nap days. Should I start cutting the nap consistently at home? They just seem quite young for that - seems to be a thing people do at 2+
