Mine naps for 4 hours and still sleeps 8pm till 8am

Mine wakes up at 7am naps at 12 wakes at 2 and bedtime at 7/730. If he doesn’t have a nap he crashes at 5 and wakes up at 6 full of energy. Some are ready to drop naps earlier than others

Naps 1-3pm, Sleeps 8pm-8am

Nope we’ve dropped my LG naps completely and sleeps 7-7

We still have naps here but only for 1.5 hours. She’s never been a big napper and has always preferred her night time sleep.

@Chelsea - please share your secret! Mine naps for an hour or two and is usually up at 6!

@Uzma both him and his sister who's 9 months sleep 10:30am - 2pm then 8pm - 8am . They both have since birth haha. Literally just put them down awake and leave them 😂

She still naps 12:30-1:30 and sleeps 7/7:30-5/5:30

Yes but only for about half an hour

She just naps for an hour. She’s low sleep needs and won’t go to sleep until about 9pm. She’s not quite ready to drop her nap yet, she can’t make it to bedtime if she misses it x

@Chelsea - I’m so jealous! Haha! You’ve clearly been blessed by the sleep gods 😁

See I’m thinking he still needs one as when I do a whole day he makes it to bedtime and will fall and stay asleep but his behaviour is so bad 🙈. Going to try half hour to an hour tomorrow. As he’s been up half the night so let him have 2 hours today

Yes currently but I've made it later and capping it to wake at 2 so she still sleeps at night

Mine usually naps between 12/1 but lately he’s been fighting it. On nights he hasn’t napped he sleeps through and then won’t nap the next day. On days he naps it’s very hard to get him to sleep and he usually wakes in the night! So I don’t know what the answer or solution is!

@Yasmine that’s exactly what’s happening for my little one. Bedtime is such a fight at the moment! Last night he didn’t sleep until half 1 in the morning 🙈😳

Sometimes. It depends on what time he wakes up in the morning. If he’s up at 8 early he’ll nap for 2 hours. If he’s up at 9 or later he skips his nap.

My son sleeps approx 12-14h per night and I had to remove naps completely otherwise he was calling me to play for hours at night

The transition from 1 - 0 nap is the hardest I think! With my first we did a nap every other day to help with the tiredness and grumpiness. Or we did a Power Nap around 12 in the car daily. Also supper got earlier at 4pm and he was in bed at 6. He’s now not napped for a year but after a busy week we try to get him to nap in the car every Saturday just to get one in!

I need help, what are you guys doing to help your lo nap. My daughter has completely stopped napping some days she does nap. However she refuses to nap I take her to her bed and she just plays around and keeps leaving her bed. However if she is in the car and we are she will fall asleep straight in the way. So I’m confused does she need the nap or not? The days she doesn’t nap she is grumpy when it gets to 5/6 ish so we try to keep her busy 😭. It’s hard also if we are driving and she hasn’t napped she will sleep if she enters the danger zone her bedtime is ruined. Could I get some advice please x

@Hamda I ask my son if we should go to bed. Makes them feel like they have a choice. Take toys out of the room and get them tucked in with any teddies or blankets they have and give them a kiss goodnight to leave. Sometimes she might want a mini bedtime story

I’ve clicked yes, but there’s been a few times lately she’s refused a nap!!! Praying it’s not the end of napping yet!!!! lol

Thank you everyone I put him down at half 10 and to be awake by 12 and he slept all night again 🤞 still a bit grumpy in the day but I’ll take it if he sleeps at night 😂x
