Yuck. I do not like those tran­si­tions. Going from three naps to two didn’t seem to be too tough. Going from two down to one is not pretty at our house. Lately, A has been fight­ing his morn­ing nap. He used to go down okay, and then about three hours later, he’d take his after­noon nap. Well, in the last week, the morn­ing nap has become a strug­gle. So, for the past few days, we have tried to go with­out it. Nei­ther option is great. Today, A had a 8 minute nap on the way to town to get gas and go to the library. Then, he was pretty sleepy dur­ing lunch, so I laid him down think­ing that he should sleep for at least an hour or two. Well, after forty-five min­utes, he was up. I tried to help him go back to sleep, but he didn’t think that was a good idea. So, right now, we’re at 12 months old, awake from 7am to 7 or 8pm, and 1 hr of sleep give or take 10 min­utes. Maybe tomor­row will be bet­ter?
I keep try­ing to remind myself not to get too frus­trated, because as with any­thing else at this age, it’s a phase and it can change overnight. Hope­fully tonight is that night!
