At what age did DC drop naps completely?
Around daylight savings I was having major problems with Ryan and napping. He would just cry, cry, cry in the crib.
By some miracle I got them back and for 2 weeks he was doing great. Now all of a sudden they are a battle again. In the car he will fall asleep for 45 minutes or so but that's it he cries endlessly in the crib.
Is it time to give up on naps already?! He will be 22 months this week.  And FTR he sleeps 7pm-7am every day.

Re: At what age did DC drop naps completely?
Kaydyn is 27 months and there are days that she will sit in her room for an hour and a half/2 hours and not fall asleep. So I think sometimes she just doesn't need that nap anymore. I've been trying to get her out of the house each day (I'm on maternity leave) and tire her out at the park/playground and then she will still need a nap. But if she happens to fall asleep in the car for 15/20 mins then she won't nap at home.

Re: At what age did DC drop naps completely?
DS is 28 months and still naps 1x a day for 2 hours and sleeps about 11hours at night.
I dont let him sleep in the car because i find it messes up my nap time.
Also about that age we did go through 1 week where it was bad and then went back to norml thank goodness!

Re: At what age did DC drop naps completely?
About 18 months for DD. She will nap in the car if I am out but never if we stay home. She has never been a good napper and it just wasn't worth all the fighting to get her to nap and then taking a short nap and then being cranky because she didn't nap enough! We pushed up her bedtime and she sleeps 7:30-6:30/7 and she's fine. It actually makes my life a little easier since I don't have to plan my day around a nap.

Noah is 6 and still usually naps on weekends. He NEEDS the downtime or he's a wreck. He was still actually napping everyday last year in kindergarten.

Re: At what age did DC drop naps completely?
Most kids at 22 months only need 12-13 hours of sleep.
Since Ryan is getting 12 hours at night, he might not need to nap more than an hour or so.
Jacen sleeps 10 hours at night and 3 hours during the day.
Sounds like Ryan is getting most of his sleep at night.

Re: At what age did DC drop naps completely?
DS was under 2, I can't remember exactly how old though. He was always a terrible napper.
THe strange thing is that he naps every day at daycare, but he won't nap at home for us. On weekends or days off the only way he will take a nap is if we go somewhere in the car and he falls asleep. If not, he doesn't take a nap. He just doesn't need sleep I guess. And he only sleeps about 10 hours at night too.

A little over 2.5. She will only nap if she is not feeling well.

Re: At what age did DC drop naps completely?
DD is 30 months and still naps 1.5-2.5 hours a day, plus sleeps 12+ hours at night. She can go a day without a nap, but I find she makes up for it the next day.
ETA: Like another poster said, at this age if she falls asleep in the car, it's all over! Even just a 10-15 minute car nap is enough to reset her clock.

Re: At what age did DC drop naps completely?
DS stopped before he was two.
DD is still going strong with a 2-3 hour nap per day and she is almost 3!

Re: At what age did DC drop naps completely?
Lily will nap about 45 minutes to an hour for us on the weekends.
She'll nap for 2-3 hours for my dad during the week.
