20 month old shortening naptime and bedtime sleep duration?

My 20 month old all of a sudden started napping less and sleeping less.  Normally, she slept 11 hours at night and then 2 (sometimes 3) hours for nap.  the past 3 weeks she has been doing only 10 at night and then anywhere from 1-1/2 hours for naptime.  Has anyone else gone through this?  Did it ever go back?  She is teething something aweful, but I did give her some advil before nap yesterday and it still only lasted about 1 hour 20 min.  Idk, it's just not her.

    We did starting around 18 months (and also daylight savings) and DD is now 21 months. Her nights were 11hrs with an easy bedtime and usualy 2hr nap.  Now she does 10-10.5 and night and naps are 1.5 - 2hrs.  Also she takes longer to fall asleep at bedtime (not crying just talking etc).  It hasn't changed back so I'm chalking it up to the new normal for now.  She will periodically sleep longer for a few days presumably to catch up as she needs to so I'm trying not to worry about it.

    Maybe it is teething or other and she'll be back to prior schedule soon.
