@Hannah such long naps 😻 do you settle your little one in cot drowsy ?x
They honestly will do things so different with another person! My boys routine there and here is SO different I wouldn’t stress too much on the self soothing of course the breastfeeding is different x
My little girl has 2-3 naps per day, usually 30 mins each. She has a breastfeed before each nap but doesn’t feed to sleep - usually do a feed then read a book before settling down to sleep. She has a floor bed so I lie beside her until she’s asleep then roll away.
@Hannah this is pretty much the same as us apart from we do bottle and only an hours nap in the afternoon 🥰
@Elena THIS! My eldest was a complete boob monster but she went to nursery at 1 and also my parents looked after her and they got her to settle in different ways. I carried on feeding her to sleep when I was with her. You don’t need to stop feeding to sleep because of childcare!
I pop him down awake in his cot and he goes to sleep himself. I aim for 2.5/3 hours of naps each day but it doesn’t always work out that way but he does average 2.5 hours. We are only on week 3 of moving to 2 naps so at the moment if he has a short nap in the morning <50 mins then I often will contact nap him to extend it but in the afternoon I don’t as long as he’s had enough sleep for the day. I’ll probably stop doing the contact nap extending soon as I think he’s settled into 2 naps now but I did it to begin with to help the transition from 3 naps x
@Lauren my boy goes down well for me but he does have a little winge and moan but for her he goes down without a sound, she also gets him down at 9:30 there is no way he would do that for me earliest I can get him down is 10:30 😂 it’s so weird how they’re so different for others and just fit in with them x
Although just working on changing the 4pm feed to a bottle with mixed success 🤞🤞
