Every nap drop, from four naps down to none

Nap transitions are the part of baby sleep nobody warns you about. One week the schedule works, the next it collapses, and it takes a fortnight to work out whether they've dropped a nap or you're doing something wrong.

This toolkit covers all five transitions — 5→4, 4→3, 3→2, 2→1 and the final one to no naps at all — with readiness signs, a step-by-step plan, and what to do when the middle of it goes badly.
