AMC, thanks for starting this thread. It's very informative. I'm really no help, but you have my empathy.
Reading this, I realize how crazy unscheduled we really are. Ev is seemingly incapable of taking regular naps. He catnaps throughout the day (maybe 4 short naps), and we can't seem to get him to sleep longer than 30 minute stretches during the day. A lot of it is out of my control because he is at daycare 5 days a week. He usually goes to bed anywhere from 7-9 at night, and then he wakes up between 2-4 for a bottle, and usually goes back to sleep until 6-7. I guess that is not THAT bad, but I envy those of you with regular schedules. He throws a fit if we put him in the crib before he is sound asleep (so we haven't fought that battle yet), however, he can sometimes settle himself if he wakes up during the night. I'm afraid we're going to be in for some trouble in a few months when he is no longer sleeping in the woombie.
