No naps

My recently turned 16 month old is on 1 nap now. He has been for about 2 months. Lately he's been rejecting his afternoon nap. Anyone have any tips on how to get him napping again? He usually wakes up around 6:20-6:50am. In bed by 6:30-7:30pm (depending on if he napped that day or not). 1st wake window is around 6 hrs & 2nd is about 4.5 hrs. Lunch around 10:45/11am. Not sure if lunch is giving him a boost of energy? Thank you.

I had the same issue There’s not much u can do. My thing was to just offer the nap and if my guy takes it then that’s a win and if not then he just gets some quiet time which is good for him too So just offer the nap 9/10 they’ll go to sleep or they will stay up and talk to themselves 🤣

@Karly yep, talking & he plays in bed. I will try the quiet time tip. Thank you. Did your son eventually go back to napping usually?

Yes he did! That’s the only way we got through the refusal of naps 🤣🤣he was like a bear with a sore ass if I just let him decide not to take a nap 🤣 So that’s why I decided quiet time Even if he sits there talking to himself or whatever It gives me a break as well as maybe helps quiet the brain a little
