When we spend days at my mother-in-law's, the daytime naps get completely off schedule. How do I reset the routine once we're back home?

Nap schedules often get disrupted during days at grandma's—this is a very common situation. Think of it not as a setback but as a natural part of your baby adjusting to a different environment.
The most effective thing you can do when you return is to stick to your home sleep routine exactly as it was. Even if the surroundings changed, the routine feels familiar—book first, then dimmed lights, the same lullaby or calm voice. It's normal for naps to be delayed or shorter for the first 1-2 days; your baby's brain needs time to readjust to home.
Consistency is the key: repeating the same sequence for each daytime nap will help your baby get back into the old routine within a few days.
