When did your LO transition to 1 nap?

My LO is almost 1, but lately he's been fighting his naps.  He seems tired, but I'm wondering if this is the beginning of the transition to 1 nap.  He's never been a good napper.  Most days at least one of his naps is only 30-35 minutes.

When did your LO transition to 1 nap?  How did you know he/she was ready?  How did you make the switch?

Thanks!

    Daycare started the transition for us.  LO got moved to the Infant 2 class around 10 month.  They do just 1 nap a day.  So they slowly transitioned her to 1 nap.  It took a few weeks to adjust, but she does great with it now.  Sometimes on the weekends she'll want 2 naps and we give it to her.  Sorry, I know thats not much help about your questions on how did we know.

    DD is working on it now.  Most days lately she has only been taking one.  But she is absolutely exhausted by bedtime--she needs to be able to push her morning nap back a bit, but she can't make it much longer than 3.5hrs in the morning.  She just turned 12m.

    10 months she started fighting her morning nap (took two 45 minute naps a day). Three days I tried everything to get her to sleep and I finally gave up. Had to move the afternoon nap up and hour or two, but then she started sleeping 2 hours at a time.

    My DD was no where near going to one nap at 10 months.  She was ready at about 17 months.  Every LO is different though.

    DD started taking just one nap right around her 1st birthday.  She is still on the same schedule now and naps 1:30-3:30ish every day.

    DS transitioned at 18 months.  It started to be harder to get him to sleep for his first nap (9:30) and he would often not sleep as long for it as he used to.  I was surprised at how quickly he went from absolutely needing that first nap at 9:30, to being able to stay awake until 1:30 with no problem.
