  • Q&A: Nap Transitions, Short Naps & Night Wakings... What’s Normal?
    Sep 29 2026

    Answering this week's Top 5 Sleep Questions. This week’s questions highlight the following topics:

    - My 14 month old is on one nap. He is sometimes awake for two hours in the middle of the night. He wakes at 6am, naps at noon for 2 hours, and goes to bed at 7pm. Any suggestions to help with the night wakes?

    - Can you give me a good napping and bedtime schedule for a newly 2 year old?

    - We just switched my freshly 8 month old baby to 2 naps, but he’s crying and taking 40 minutes to fall asleep now. Should we go back to 3 naps?

    - My almost 6 month old is still taking mostly 30-45 minute naps. We keep him up for about 2 hours between each nap. Any suggestions to help lengthen naps?

    - Is it normal for my 16 month old to be taking shorter naps when first starting 1 nap days?
