Danger nap! Help!
Normally hubs is WFH but occasionally has to go in. We only have 1 car so I have to drop him off and collect him later from the train station.
Today he had to go to the office for a meeting that lasted longer than expected so instead of picking him up at 5, I had to get him at 6pm.
Ofc I can’t leave our 1yo at home so she had to come in the car with me, 10 mins into the drive she fell asleep 🤦🏼♀️ She had a 35 minute nap by the time we got home.
How do you tackle danger naps? If they happened, do you just push bedtime?
I just keep as close to the usual schedule as possible. But if I can see my LO is way too full of energy come the usual bedtime I'll push it back by 30 mins, dim the lights, play some calm music - get her as sleepy as possible before I take her upstairs to start the night routine.... and then just pray to the sleep gods!
