Wake windows

How long are your babies staying awake between naps? My LO is struggling badly with naps and will only sleep for 30-40 minutes. I think I’m putting him down too soon as he showing me tired signs but he’s tired all day due to the rubbish naps! Wondering if I should stretch him to be awake for 2 hours between naps now?

My little one is 15 weeks now and he averages about 1 & 1/2 - 2hr wake windows between naps, and naps 1-2hrs at a time

My little boy is 16 weeks and goes 1hr45-2hrs between naps and sleeps anywhere from 30 mins - 2hrs so I wouldn't stress too much

Mine is 12 weeks and goes 1.5-2.5 hours and naps for 30 mins and sometimes 2.5 hours x

I had the same issue and started to use Huckleberry sweet spot predictions. It was a game changer. Best 8.99£ /month spent

Mine seems to be going through a phase of only tolerating JUST over an hour. We can sometimes push it to an hour and a half but that’s if we’re lucky

12 week old. Just today trying 1h15-1h30 wake window. She fell asleep independently and is still going. 40 minutes in so far🤞🏼

Awake for 60-90 mins and will sleep for around 2 hours

@Ana out of interest how did this help with naps? I can’t get my 14 week old to nap longer than 40mins in the day

@Charlotte I just stuck to a 100-110 minute wake window today and my son has slept the best he ever has for both naps today. I think I was putting him to bed undertired - I was doing 70-90 mins and he was waking after 40 mins. So I think pushing to close to 2 hours (but never exceeding it) might be the magic trick! He’s 12 weeks x
