Hi there, my bubs is now 6.5months but too used to sleep several short naps in the day. I didn't realise until someone told me that babies have a 40min sleep cycle, so once he woke up I got him out & just started playing with him....though found he got grump really soon & was back down for another nap. This made it hard to get anything done & was for ever up & down etc. I just found I needed to help him through the sleep cycle, & still sometimes have to now. I would re-wrap him, or pop dummy in...no eye contact & walk straight out again. If he cried heaps then he wanted to get up, otherwise I'd let him grumble a bit & he'd go back off to sleep. But as you said each bubs is different, as she gets more active you might find she sleeps longer...I also use music as that too can soothe them through a sleep clycle. HTH.
