I've sometimes wondered if reducing DS's day sleeps would result in more sleep at night too. He's still having 3 naps a day ( 1.5hr, 1.5 hr and 45mins) and wakes 3 hourly during the night for feeds. A couple of times he's missed a nap due to us being out or having people over, and it never seems to change anything at night.
Oh, and I've heard the saying that "sleep breeds sleep". ie, that the better they sleep during the day, the better they will sleep at night. But having said that, I'm sure all babies are different, and what works for one may not work for another.
11.00am to 7.30pm! Thats impressive! If she can do it, you're not mean. I have been wondering if its nearly time for 1 sleep for DS too. If DS has a good morning nap I can't get him back down for 4.5 hours which brings us often too close to dinner and bath time.. However, he can still only stay up 2.5 to 3 hours in the mornings!!
