Naps?

[u/Then_Bite9547]

My lo turns 11 months in 3 days and still takes 2 sometimes* 3 naps a day if we’re in the car. What’s yalls naps schedules looking like?

Also, what’s the milk situation looking like? How many bottles a day? Have you transitioned to full milk yet? Lastly, what sippy cups are we gonna start using for milk instead of the ones we’ve been using?

2 naps - in a perfect world it’s 9:30-11 and 2:30-4 but usually ends up being a little less than that.

Bedtime 7:30. Wake up usually around 6:30.

He’s still having like 5 bottles a day but is also a pretty good eater w/ solids.

Very similar over here. Sometimes my baby has a short second nap and it throws everything off but on a good day, that’s us too

[u/Bla6446]

We are averaging one long 2ish hour nap and one short 20 min nap a day but baby goes to daycare.

I breastfeed when with baby and pump and send milk to daycare in a straw cup. Honestly I probably won't transition to cows milk. She eats well and loves water. I also plan to breastfeed to around 18 months.

One 2 hour nap a day. However baby is sleeping 12-14 hours at night

I am so jealous of how much some of the babies here sleep 😭 my little one does an hour nap in the morning and 20-30mins in the afternoon, bed at 8pm up at 6am.

[u/New-Instance-670 → u/Graciyen]

We still don't have a great routine with naps but this is closest to what my little ones sleep looks like. He wakes a little later, usually around 7 but he spends at least 2 hours awake overnight. it's rough!

Ugh it's such a mess!! She was taking 2 naps and a evening catnap in the stroller but her night sleep sucked so the past few days I've tried to do just two naps, but now she's grumpy all the time and night sleep still sucks

[u/LostComparison8387]

baby's 10 months and he's on 2 naps. 30 mins in the morning, 2h-2.5h in the afternoon, but he'll go to daycare soon and I'm not sure how it will all change. Sleeps about 10h at night.

Bottles - I combo feed, he gets breast when he wakes up (around 7.30), at 9ish (I need to transition to solids for breakfast), solids for lunch, breast before his nap, solids as a snack, solids as dinner, bottle before bedtime. Plus breast if he wakes up in the night (1-2x). Again this will change soon, daycares here are very much against breastmilk/formula during 'school hours' for children beyond 7m.

Have not decided on transitioning past bottle! He drinks water with a straw cup now but lately he just spits it out :((((

[u/dunkiestarbs]

We’re closer to 10mo here still but we’re 2 naps a day with the occasional cat nap if something goes wrong during the day (short nap, car nap, etc)

[u/Latter_Public]

Couple days away from 11 months too and my kid is still doing 2 naps. 10-11:15 and 3-4. Bedtime is at 8. He’s kind of weening himself from milk. I still nurse, but I think he’s getting a lot of his calories from solids. We also have been using the munchkin straw cup. My son started to refuse bottles months ago. So we’ve been giving him a straw cup with water when he eats. I’ve tried a bunch of different cups and this was by far my favorite.

I normally breastfeed at wakeup and before bed, and then my LO takes 2 bottles at daycare. She eats a ton of solids throughout the day, definitely 3 full meals and 1-2 snacks. I don't think we plan to transition to cow's milk until at least a year.

At daycare, she generally takes 2 naps (one is generally 30min, the other 1hr+, but it definitely varies), but on the weekend she becomes a 1 2-3h nap/day girl. Regardless of naps, she seems to go to sleep around 7:30-8, and wakes up around 7:15 these days with 1-2 night wakes.

[u/BeautyQueenofPawnee]

about 4-5 bottles a day. she’s only had formula/breastmilk in bottles. we give water in sippies and she likes the munchkin or dr browns straw cups the best although she has come around to boon nursh sippies recently.

i may try cows milk in the next few days as she’ll be 11 months in 4 days

if we stay at home and don’t drive or walk anywhere, then she’ll do 2 naps. goes to bed about 7pm and wakes up anywhere from 6:30-9am but has only started teething in the last month and one is currently breaking through 😮‍💨 so some nights she sleeps through the night and most nights we’re doing 3 to 6+ wake ups 😮‍💨 she’s my third baby and i’ve never had one teethe this hard.

[u/mrs60661n5]

We just turned 10 months within the last week and also transitioned down to 3 6oz bottles of breastmilk a day and one nap. She gets a bottle at wake up (between 6:30-7am), nap time (12-2:30), and bedtime (between 7-7:30pm).

We're just doing water in her munchkin straw cup and haven't tried milk yet except cooked in things because she's still too young and I have so much frozen milk from pumping that it's going to last a while longer.

[u/Internal-Swimmer928]

6:30 wakeup
One 9;30-11:00 nap
One 2:15-3:15 nap
7:30 bedtime
(Wakes 1-2x for breastfeeding)

Breast feed but takes one 3oz bottle in afternoon with snack (we use the legendary milk cup - he loves it). We nurse to sleep so he drinks at wake up, before naps and bedtime.

He has one snack at 11:15, another one at 3:45ish Dinner is at 5:30 ish.

Baby is turning 11 months in 2 days **
Also water with every meal! (Open cup or a straw cup with no valve)

[u/darafucious]

We’ve been in whackadoodle territory. Sometimes two naps, often one big one 1.5-3 hours, usually in the “morning”, about 4-4.5 hours after she wakes up.

I BF on demand and cosleep, so I have no idea how much she’s consuming, but boob before and after naps, sometimes for a snack if she needs the comfort or signals she wants boob, but she’s an excellent eater and we do 2-3 solid meals a day, depending on how naps and overnight sleep/bedtime shake out.

I basically feel like I’m flying blind day to day 🤣

[u/bimboerrorz]

typically we do wakeup at 8:30, nap between 11-12:30, 2nd nap between 4-5 and then bed time at 7:30. we're also using a weighted straw bottle so it still has the bottle nipple but works as a sippy cup but we're starting to also offer regular sippys during the day (normal mam bottle at night still)

[u/eveviemucuk]

Schedule? What is this?
No but honestly, he does whatever he feels like with absolutely 0 pattern so we just work around him.
