My daughter moved on from dropping the morning nap (at nine months unfortunately for us all) to ideally needing to sleep about 11am for a couple of hours (sometimes not possible because it clashed with a playgroup which hence meant lots of melt downs). She often however found it hard to make it to bedtime and often got very cranky around 5pm (fell asleep in her highchair once while having her dinner!!). I think (this was three years ago) that I started to put her to bed earlier for a while - 6ish, until I could get her to nap around 12.30 - 1pm, after lunch. I think it all naturally takes a bit of time and adjustment.

My 10 month old sleeps for three hours in the morning and an hour in the afternoon. She goes down at 7 and gets up at 7. I'm not sure how I got it so good but I'm sure it will change as time goes on. I do know that we are very active when she is awake. We go to the park, swimming, soft play and she is an early (nearly) walker. They are all different I suppose.


I agree with the falling asleep thing. My girl goes down at 9am and if she doesn't, I find her asleep on the floor.

    • @first mate I assume Alice made a mistake, as she removed her reaction.  I was wondering about park wardens. As I said, there was one there last night, who was incredibly helpful and proactive. As well as bringing me to the police, he caught up with a young guy on a bike who'd earlier been the victim of an attempted theft by these kids and linked him up with the police too. But I do wonder, as I've only very occasionally seen him riding around, how many they have and what hours they patrol. I've no doubt they'd be a strong deterrent if they had a better presence. They were nowhere to be seen the first time around. 
    • Some of us oldies would associate Grove with the old Grove Vale School (which I went to in the 1950s)
    • The toilets at this spot in the park have been vandalised to such an extent that they are now closed.
    • Hello! I'm looking for 2-3 baby gates I can borrow from 17th August - 6th September for a visitor.  Does anyone have any I could use? Thank you!
