Click isn't working right now for me but it varies from 3-6 depending on the given day. Daycare isn't even consistent. Sometimes he'll have 2 there all day and sometimes 4. Sometimes he naps at home before bed and sometimes not. It's all a crapshoot right now.
Mid morning, big afternoon nap and usually a short dinner time nap. He's been fairly consistent. But since I said that it means he's going To change now.
A was such a consistent napper. 1-1.5 hour morning and afternoon naps, and a half hour evening catnap. Cam is literally across the board. Sometimes he takes 2 hour long naps. Sometimes he won't sleep longer than 15-20 mins at a time. Sunday he took 2 20 min naps and that was it. The. Whole. Day. And he was up for about 13 hours. You're killin' me, kid!

This is DS lately, although probably not quite that extreme. A few days ago he only took a few twenty minute naps, crashed at 7 for the night and got up for the day at 10am (with wakeups). Then one day he took one 3 hour nap in the late afternoon and crashed early.
Before this weird nap issue he was a consistent 3 naps (morning afternoon and evening cat nap) hence why I'm considering a white noise machine to see if I can encourage him to go back to good naps haha
Ridley apparently takes a lot of naps! I'd say on average she gets 5-6 naps a day. Usually up for an hour down for an hour from whenever she wakes up until 4 or 5, then one more nap around 6ish before bedtime.
We are not great at naps. Usually one from 7:30 AM to 8:00 AM, then another mid morning, then an afternoon one, then an evening one around 6. I wish he'd drop the evening one but he needs it, so we deal. None of the naps are long, and he refuses to crib nap.
Usually three, but none are longer than 45 minutes. She's a pretty good night sleeper though so I guess she doesn't need to sleep as much during the day.
Daycare is a bit of a toss up but at home we are usually 3 naps that average 1hour each. She usually take a killer long nap if we are wanting to go somewhere when she wakes up lol then they are 2 plus hours lol

This is us. But I was home with DD so I could get her on a schedule and I worked hard to break the 45 minute nap when she had issues with it. DS can be all over the place at daycare and I can't get anywhere on the weekends.

3-ish. If he gets a good morning nap at home, it's three. If we're running errands, he catnaps in the car so it ends up being 4-5 short ones. But the "golden" schedule here is one 45-60 minute nap sometime around 8 or 9am, followed by a good 2 hour nap at noonish, and a 30 minute quick nap around 4-5.

He's always slept for about 20 minutes max in his crib for naps, but will sleep in my arms just fine. Usually three naps a day.
I'm kind of at a loss because I know he's supposed to be put down awake, but he screams bloody murder if he's not 95% asleep and it's hard to get it just right before he's completely asleep. Now the night time sleep is the same as the naps
I'm not sure how to show him that he's supposed to sleep in his crib and not my arms. Any ideas?

So DD I would put down drowsy/awake. She liked to be pat/jiggled and shushing always stopped her crying. So I would put her down while shushing loudly (even with the sound machine), and gently jiggle/wiggle her. Once settled I would stop the shushing and slowly stop the jiggling. I kept my hand on her for a few minutes then would leave the room. If she woke up I would go back in and do the shush/jiggle again.
DS I'm still figuring out but he really likes his back to be pat and being on his side.

Beckett almost always takes 3. One in the morning, one early afternoon, and one late afternoon. Usually one of them lasts 1-2 hours. The other 2 are shorter, but it always varies which one he'll sleep long for.
Usually 3 naps. Morning and afternoon are at least 1.5 hrs and a 30-45 min catnap tho I think we are trying to drop the evening nap. I have noticed that when we skip it, she sleeps way better at night. Is opposite of what I would have expected but it's definitely true at this point. 1 wake up vs 6 is worth a hella grumpy kiddo in the evenings!
