Yup it's my fav question haha

LOL mine too  ;D

Yes I'm going with 7pm but today I was running so late and he didn't go bed until 7:50 and finally settled at 8:10! Nooooooooooo fail.... Fingers crossed he sleeps until 7:30!

That's life, it happens. I keep forgetting you're down under, and BT has already been and gone. You never know you may get a longer nap because of it, presuming you're going to wake him at 7.30.

Finger's crossed.x.

Hi again
Last night didn't go well but that was my fault. We had 3 nw and ended up sleeping in his room. WU and nap at the same time but he slept for 50m today yay it's better than 45! I went in a rocked him and held him til 3pm (I woke him since it's what time I want him to wake) and bedtime at 8pm. Fingers crossed for 2moro! X

He woke at 6:30am this morning. I wonder what's going on? I'll stick to 1:30pm nap I guess and see how it goes. X

I think I may have shot for an earlier bed time Honey :( Due to his previous night being short. So are you doing set nap? Or 6 hours A time to 12.30 nap :/

Oh earlier? I'm doing set naps which is also 6hr A which is why I went for 1:30. Should I be doing just A times for now until he has a better nap? He ended up sleeping 38m (1:19-1:57) resettled in arms for another 45m (2:45pm). Dh is putting him to bed now (it's 7:35 here). Should I have done EBT too?

With a 6.30 WU,and a 6 hour A time,  nap time would have been 12.30, no  ??? Obviously they're only the same thing if WU is consistent. It just seems that maybe because of the NW 2 nights ago, it's had a knock on effect to last night and caused EWU. IIWM, I would be going or 6 hours A time, and EBT if he short naps. If you think at this age you're probably looking at a 1.5 to 2 hour nap with an 11.5 hour night, then there needs to be some compensation for the short nap somewhere.

But hey, I guess we're going over old ground here  ;) A times versus set nap again  ::)

Good luck today. Let me know how it goes. If he short naps I'd probably shoot for 6.30/6.45 BT.

He didn't settle until 8:05pm Tonight. I'll go for 6hr A tomorrow and see how he goes and do an EBT. Yea I'm torn between this A time vs set nap business ..sigh.. But A time seems wiser at the moment so I'll run with that.. Keep u posted x

Woohoo! I finally got 1.5hrs nap!

I went to set naps coz the 6hr A wasn't working due to nw and ewu. I still got an ewu but at least the nw stopped. Will keep you posted.. Fingers crossed it's not a once off thing.

Virtual hugs and roses and chocolates to say thanks!
