Once a day nappers

nunzchucksnunzchucks member
in March 2012 Moms

DD normally takes two 1.5 hr naps. For the past several days, she's been taking a really long time to go to sleep...like 30 min; no crying just rolling around and playing with her sleep sack. She will still sleep for 1.5 hrs for each nap. 

I guess my question is, how did you know it was time to transition to one nap? I feel like we could go to one since she's taking so long to sleep, but both her naps are still pretty long! When she cut out her third nap, it was a fight AND the nap would be 15 min.

    I knew it was time when DD started fighting naps. That first week was rough. But it got much better after that. :)

    I had a similar experience to countrygirl - she started really fighting and getting angry and cry when I would lay her down and we were pushing back longer and longer. And not the "oh I am sleepy but I still want to play" kind of cry - like the roaring ma

    I thought we were almost ready to drop to 1 nap about a week ago, but DS's back to 2 nice long naps (1-1.5hr in the morning and 1-2.5hrs in the afternoon)now. He was doing what OP was describing, with playing in his crib for 30mins or more before finally

    Jane dropped herself to one 2 hour nap per day last week.  It was glorious - she was getting more daytime sleep (so she was in a better mood) AND sleeping better at night.  This week she's decided to go back to two 30-45 minute naps :(.  I'

    DS went through a stretch like this that turned out to be part of the 12/13 month sleep regression - evidently fighting the morning nap is a very common aspect of it.  It's entirely possible that she's ready to transition to one nap, but I thought I'

    We cut the morning nap around the same time he started weaning. He just didn't seem interested in sleeping for very long. He was more into playing.

    He now takes a longer afternoon nap.

    We knew it was time when he started waking at night again or waking too early. Now our dayhome puts him down at 10:30 and he sleeps till 12:30 then bed time is 7:30pm and he wakes at 6:45am. It was a bit of of an adjustment at first but it only took a cou
