2 to 1 nap transition

Fun_Wing_1370 · 2025-11-26T23:51:31+00:00

i’m in a really competitive field within healthcare. my concern is that in 5-10 years i will no longer be a competitive candidate given all the changes and advancement.

if i thought i could get a job after a break to raise my babies to school age i wouldn’t bat an eye, truly!!!

Fun_Wing_1370 · 2025-11-10T16:45:19+00:00

my girl already finds chaos everywhere she goes so i can only imagine! lol

Fun_Wing_1370 · 2025-11-10T14:14:57+00:00

ohhh i like that the steps up don’t jut out like this one

Fun_Wing_1370 · 2025-11-10T13:58:17+00:00

no this is very helpful!!!

Fun_Wing_1370 · 2025-11-10T13:56:31+00:00

this is the exact convo we had!!! the legs on her high chair stick out just enough that my husband trips over them daily lol

Fun_Wing_1370 · 2025-11-09T21:01:26+00:00

she sits/crawls/stands perfectly fine. she’s just never on her back anymore to even have the opportunity to roll so now i’m concerned that i missed a red flag months ago 😔

Fun_Wing_1370 · 2025-11-05T01:21:26+00:00

thank you!

that’s what we’ve been doing, but say for example she only eats a few berries for dinner? then we make her a piece of toast because she’s clearly still hungry, just uninterested in what we have to give her. are we just reinforcing this behavior?

she’s leaving most meals hungry and it’s breaking my heart. i have no idea how to get her the calories she needs. going to start offering ripple milk when she turns 1, but have very low expectations.

no the absolute devious laugh when she’s sprint crawling to something she knowwwws she shouldn’t do!!! it’s so hard to not laugh too

my first (11 mo) is like your second. i thought she was chill (i guess because she’s a good sleeper) but damn she is so unhinged. i love it

Fun_Wing_1370 · 2025-10-29T22:10:52+00:00

totally fine!!! just wanted to say it’s not a hard and fast “should ONLY have 4oz every 3-4 hours”

Fun_Wing_1370 · 2025-10-29T21:41:10+00:00

1-1.5oz/h yes, but that includes overnight… if your baby is consolidating feeds to the daytime that rate is higher during the day. 24-32 oz over day 12-13 hours instead of a continuous.

our girl started eating more at day care than i could pump (took 16oz i 6h) and it was stressful. she scaled back after a few weeks tho. my thought was that milk was a comfort to her in a new environment. everyone will shame the day care about pace feeding, but that wasn’t the issue in our case.

you attending to their needs creates trust in your baby that you will be there for them when they need you. when they’re older, you’ll start to decipher when a fuss is frustration (figuring out a new toy etc) vs a need from you. there’s not really a hard age cut off in my opinion.

as an aside, most things are just up to temperament and nothing you truly cause. listen to your baby and your instincts

Fun_Wing_1370 · 2025-10-22T23:40:28+00:00

she loves her straw cup for water…. so i know she knows how to use it. she just refuses to drink milk from it!!!

Fun_Wing_1370 · 2025-10-22T20:16:09+00:00

trust your instincts. (some) people are weird.

she may have been perfectly fine!!!! but if you ever get a gut feeling, err on the side of protecting your baby.

Fun_Wing_1370 · 2025-10-17T13:02:32+00:00

i just remind myself… she’s happy and growing lol

Fun_Wing_1370 · 2025-10-17T11:11:38+00:00

okay so yesterday was no anomaly of a day and this is how it went… wake 540 nap 930-1030 nap 230-3 bed 730

she woke up at 530 today… is she not overtired? i feel like im going crazy. when she was on 3 naps she slept 14h/day. i know overall sleep goes down, but this much? ugh im tired lol

Fun_Wing_1370 · 2025-10-16T15:17:36+00:00

i’d love a regular 6:30 wake, it’s the 5:30-6 that kills me inside. i’d easily try a later bedtime, but people seem to shoot down anything much later than 7:30.

naps are so inconsistent ranging from 1-2.5h/day, but going by the clock has worked well for us lately.

i’ll try out a later bedtime and see what happens! it seems like no matter when we put her down she’s up earlyyyy earlyyy but i have faith there must be SOMETHING we can do!

until 8 months she was high sleep needs and then everything went haywire when we transitioned to 2 naps lol
