Troubleshooting Nap Transitions
Troubleshooting nap transitions when the schedule isn't enough
Hi Nappers,
You did everything right. You followed the transitional schedule to the letter. Your baby should be taking that glorious two-hour afternoon nap.
Instead, you're getting one sleep cycle and an overtired meltdown by 4pm.
This week Sally and Bec break down the troubleshooting that actually happens behind closed doors when nap transitions don't click. The rescuing, the timing tweaks, the nap training that even they had to do with their own kids.

We cover:
When rescuing naps is smart strategy (not a backward step)
Why 30 minutes vs 35 minutes in the morning changes everything
How to nap train a baby who already knows how to link cycles
The real goal of nap training (hint: it's not immediate sleep)
And know that if you're struggling, you're in the exact right place. This stuff is hard.
You've got this (and we've got you),
Sally + Bec 💤
P.S. Sally had a 5:30am wake this week in the holiday house. Even sleep consultants have to do the hard reset!
