My little guy is pretty routine- he takes a morning nap between 9am-11am, another between 2pm-3:30pm and then begins to show signs of sleep around 6:30ish. I have started giving him baths w/massages every other night which seems to help him sleep better through the night- he usually falls asleep with a bottle around 7:45pm and wakes up around 5am for another bottle. He doesn`t always fall back to sleep, but when he does he will sleep until 6:30am.

Naps - either I breastfeed her when she seems drowsy and she falls asleep, or if I`m wearing her she`ll drift off `on her own` (while in whatever carrier she`s in). Bedtime - sometime she falls asleep on my lap, but usually she`s awake until we go to bed (10 or 11), she`ll breastfeed for maybe 5 minutes and then be out. She generally stays asleep until about 5 or 6, wakes up and eats, then is out again until 9 or so. I often get her up to pee at least once overnight, but she doesn't fully wake up for that.

Alex will be 9 months on the 20th. Usually for nap time, I let him go until he shows signs of tiredness and then I take him upstairs and lay him in his crib. He sometimes just falls right to sleep, other time I let him cry a little then he falls asleep, but if he fusses for more then 5 mins, I go up and comfort him until he falls asleep. At bed time, he usually has a bath, bottle, then bed. And if he`s extra fussy Daddy usually rubs his back until he drifts off...

I lay her down with a pacifier, it`s her comfort item otherwise she won`t sleep, then put a blanket over her, although that usually comes off as she rolls around. Make sure u`r LO is full, warm, and has a comfort item, I know they say you shouldn`t have things in their crib due to SIDS, but after a few months, they should be ok, I have several things like blankets and stuffed animals in her crib to keep her company

My little girl does great with naps. I just lay her down and she falls asleep right away. Bedtime is another story. She wakes up pretty often at night. My other two never had a problem with naps or bedtime at this age, but every baby is different. Good luck with yours.

i lay down with her for a few minutes at naptime. naptimes usually correspond with a feeding around here so she usually nurses and then falls asleep. bedtime is still pretty much the same, if she doesnt fall asleep while nursing then i rock her a bit before i put her down. bedtime has become quite a fight for us in the last few weeks. she still wakes up to eat in the middle of the night too.

At nap and bedtime mine still falls asleep while I`m feeding him his milk bottle. Nightime is a nightmare for me. I nurse him only at nighttime, but I have since became his pacifier. As soon as I withdrawl my breast he wakes up searching for it. So as for night timefeeding, my LO is up all night. I need to start giving him bottles at night and stop being so lazy...it`s my fault!

My son does not object when it comes to naptime. I just lay him down and he hangs out and plays for a little bit and then falls asleep when he gets bored. Our bedtime routine is bath at 8:30pm, lotion, 6oz bottle, brush teeth, and lay him down with his fish aquarium and he falls asleep within 10 minutes. Sleeps from 9pm-8am, Nap 10:30am-1pm and another nap from 3:30pm-5pm.
