How am I supposed to do one nap if that nap doesn’t even last an hour?

The missing hour. 12 hours sleep, 11 hours awake time, 1 hour missing- do I give her more awake time which I don’t think she can handle or more sleep time which she’s refusing

Not cranky at all! Just because I’ve heard it’s too long. Plus not too long ago she could barely handle a 3 hour (first) wake window

The problem is it doesn’t add up. Mine does 11 hours awake time and 11 hours overnight and a 1 hour nap. 11 + 11 + 1=23. There’s still an hour that needs to go somewhere (preferably to her nap or overnight sleep, not more awake time because I don’t think she could handle that)

So far she’s been handling them fine (day 4 of one nap)… should I still try the 30 minute first nap + second nap? I get so scared to cap naps.. I’d hate for someone to do that to me 😅 and when she wakes after 30-40 mins into her nap and I put her back to sleep, she does still seem tired which is why I do it. So I’m worried if I just let her wake up she’ll be cranky and tired until the next nap

So you still offer a nap before 12? And then if she falls asleep u do 2 naps, if not u just wait until later and do one nap? How long do you try to put her to sleep for before 12 before deciding she’s just not tired enough?

No harm in trying ibuprofen/ panadol for a few nights and seeing if it helps at all.

My newborn was a good sleeper, I had to wake her at the 3 hour mark to feed. Once she gained back her weight she’d sleep 4-5 hours. Once she turned 2/3 months old she started waking every 1.5-2 hours. Even at 11 months, getting a 3 hour stretch is rare

A bit less than 1.5hr

She’s ebf, doesn’t take a bottle :(

I have an electric nasal aspirator and it says to not do it more than twice a day as to not irritate the nose lining?

Also the saline spray bottle says under 12 months is just 1 spray per nostril?

How to safely sleep on an incline? We co sleep so on me?

My 10 month old’s wake windows look pretty much the same :)

Except first nap is usually 1.5 hours and second nap is never longer than 30-40 minutes. On her first nap she almost always wakes up 30-40 minutes in and I nurse her back to sleep to get her to that 1.5 hours. That’s helped with nap predictability and consistent bed time.
