How many naps are your 7.5 month olds having?

LO is having three naps currently but night time is an absolute mess - 5+ wake ups per night plus periods where she has to be held to sleep otherwise will wake up. Wondering if trying two naps might help but feels a little early for this? Current routine is: 7am wake 9.15am nap (1.25 hours) 1pm nap (1 hour) 4.30pm nap (30 mins) Asleep by 8 ish Give or take a little with this routine.

2x 30min naps but she sleeps 12 hours with one quick feed overnight

1 hour nap around 1030am then a wee 20 mins around 4. Bed at 7pm and up anytime between 7am - 8am

Sounds like it’s time to stretch those wake windows to 3+ hours and bring bedtime forward to 6.30/7. It happened quite suddenly for our LO, she just wasn’t tired anymore until at least 3h at around the same age and skipped that 3rd nap quite a few times before we changed things. Our schedule is quite similar: 6.30-7.15am wake up 9.30/10am first nap (2h) Around 3pm second nap (30 mins) 6.45/7pm bedtime
