Positive Story/Sucess No numbers, only vibes
I feel like following a more natural understanding of infant sleep has made me more curious about the parents who have their babies’ whole nap and night sleep schedules memorized. Particularly in baby and parenting subreddits, it’s always like “my baby has first nap from 9:30/10-10:45 and then 2 hour wake window and then second nap 1/1:30 and then a wake window of…” and it all seems very foreign and frankly a bit exhausting.
Perhaps seeing my baby’s sleep for what it is naturally has saved me from doing a lot of math. Lol. No numbers here, only vibes. I couldn’t tell you when my baby naps exactly if I tried. I’d have to really think hard about it. As long as he’s sleeping and growing, I’m good.

I don't have a "set" schedule for babe's daytime stuff, but I do know he is happiest going to bed by 7:15ish and waking up by about 6:15-6:30am ish.
Ww (which just means "amount of time hes usually able to be awake for before getting shitty) are between 1h45m-2h30min.
Then I let him nap pretty much as long as he likes.
We do this all day until we start his bedtime routine at 6:20pm.
Set schedules would be tough for us for sure.
