Toddlers: 12 - 24 Months

Naps!

Ds is 13 months old,& recently went from 2 naps to 1. He used to wake up around 8:15,& take a nap again around 11 right before lunch. Then he'd wake up at 1, then go down for another nap at 4ish-6ish. and go to bed by 8. Now he's been waking up at 9/930 & taking a nap around 12:30-2/2:30 then by 8 he's ready for bed. Has this happened to anyone else? When did your lo's switch from 2 naps to 1?

Re: Naps!

  • Little early but if he isn't cranky then go with it, DS switched around 15 months.

  • 14/15  months I believe?


  • We steadily went to one right around 13 months as well. My son has never been a great napper so it made things a lot easier routine-wise. He never sleeps more than 2 hours and normally not more than 1. I'm assuming he's going to be one of those kids that quits napping altogether early but I'm crossing my fingers that he isn't!

  • DD#1 went to 1 nap at daycare at 9 months, went to 1 nap at home at 13 months, and still naps at 2.5yrs old 1 nap 2 hours.

  • DD was 13 months.  Actually, once she went to 1 nap she napped much better.  It was amazing.  DS is back and forth.  He went to 1 nap around 14 months and then picked the second up again around 15 months.  Just follow their lead.
  • We went to 1 nap when we changed rooms at DC.  The 12-18 month room only does 1 nap, from around 1-3 after lunch (prior to this we had one in the morning from 9-10 and one after lunch from 1-3).  On the weekends, we still occasionally have a morning nap, depending on DS's cues.  I know the first week or so it is a struggle (tired by lunch, etc...), but this is DC's schedule, so they are used to working with the kids while they adjust to the new schedule.
  • Our daughter was about 10 months when she went to 1 nap. She wakes 7:30-8:30, Naps 12-2:30 then goes to bed 7-7:30.

  • We just switched to one nap.  We've kept bedtime the same, & it hasn't affected them.  They are very tired by the end of the day.  I think one of my boys was ready for 1 nap months ago, but I have to keep them on the same schedule, otherwise I'd go insane.
