2nd Nap Issues

Is anyone having issues with their DC taking a 2nd nap? DD used to be great but now she refuses to sleep. She just screamed her head off when we go to put her in for her 2nd nap (won't even sleep in her stroller). THen she is so tired at like 6:00 when we get home from work and by the time we are done with the bedtime routine she is overly tired and we missed the window and she is a terror to get down for the night. She just started cruising and now that is all she wants to do. Not sure if this is a phase? ANy advice??

Re: 2nd Nap Issues

  • I keep the morning nap to 30 or 45 minutes.  I wake DS if he tries to sleep longer than that.  Then he's tired enough to take an afternoon nap (usually 1.5 hours) which is perfect to get him down again for a 7pm bedtime.

    This is working for us right now - hope it helps!
