Do you wake your LO from naps to keep the schedule on track?

DS (7mo) is just so variable! I put him down for a morning nap at 9.20am and he's still asleep!

This means he will might only take a short pm one and be knackered, despite a catnap before bed. Or he might have the usual length nap and we'll miss toddler group! (again)

Pooooo....

WWYD?

Oh, and I started limiting the morning nap to 45min at I don't know, 6mo? The time when he stopped having his naps in his pram whenever he felt like it, and I started having to put him in his cot for naps. About 6mo.

Ah Trinity, he didn't sleep at all until 6 months, and now he's a toddler... well, let's just say I know sleep deprivation too It's just that he slept brilliantly from 6mo to 20mo and I had the luxury of choosing to wake him!

He's still a good daytime sleeper and although he does sleeps 10-12 hours at night, we're currently in with him once or twice a night to resettle or give him water or find lost toy or answer questions about the meaning of life like "where's the sun?". The joys of a toddler. Hmmm...
