Toddlers: 12 - 24 Months

waking up from naps?

Do you have to wake your kid up from naps or do you let him/her wake on his own? 

I wake mine up after 2 hours, but I realize that might be unusual.  He's 22 months, if that matters, and sleeps 8pm till 6ish in the morning and then again 1 to 3.  Is that standard?

Dear God, Since I couldn't hold my little one in my lap and tell him about you, could you hold him in your lap and tell him about me?

Re: waking up from naps?

  • I don't ever wake him, unless we have to leave the house. He takes over two hour naps frequently, usually about 2 and a half.

    He goes down for the night around 8 to 9 and sleeps to about 8 the next morning. Naps are usually 12 to 2 30.

     

  • I don't wake her unless we have to go somewhere.  Her naps are all over the place, anywhere from 30 minutes to 3 hours.

  • I never wake the sleeping baby.

    I had a kid who was a great night sleeper from birth but she was over 1 before she'd take more than a half hour nap consistently.

    Now at 2 her naps are like 2-3 hours. Up at 8ish, bed at 9ish.

    I know it's longer than the "standard" but she runs and plays outside a good share of the day so I'm assuming she's tired. We're all happy so whatever.

  • Naps? What are those? LOL. Cortlan will still usually only nap for 30-45 minutes at a time. On a rare occasion, she will nap for 1-1.5 hours but that is VERY rarely. So, no. I do not wake her. If we have somewhere to be, I will be late before I wake that child who never sleeps. LOL. That said, she's an awesome night time sleeper so I'm happy with that. 
  • My dd is the same age sleeps 830p-830p and takes a nap from 2-330. It just depends how many hours of sleep they need in a 24hr period
