What a 6 months old's day looks like
Solids begin and windows stretch fast. The third nap is on borrowed time for many babies — protect night sleep first.
Windows lengthen across the day: start the morning near 102 minutes after wake-up and let the final stretch before bed run closer to 164 minutes. If naps keep running short, the day is likely overtired — pull bedtime earlier rather than stretching windows.
