[quote=Anonymous]3-4 months is haaaaard! You may be hitting 4 month regression. But 35-45 mins is developmentally normal for a nap at 3 months and it sucks. SO MUCH. I think 70-90 minute wake windows are still normal at 3 months so not necessarily a ww issue.  Our crappy naps showed up at 6 weeks (though he was always better when held, even during the regression), were absolutely AWFUL battles during the 4 month regression, and didn't disappear til 6 months when we dropped to 2. And even still his second nap is sometimes sh-tty and needs to be rocked back down after the first sleep cycle. We held to extend every nap after the 30 minute intruder until we nap trained.

Yes you can nap train and our ped said we could do it at 4 months, though she typically recommended it at 6 months. We nap trained at 5 months and it kinda helped, but really what helped was dropping to 2 naps.

Baby naps suuuuuuuck, and this is the best kept secret of parenting. SO much harder than night sleep for us.[/quote]
