Question re: toddlers who nap once a day...

DD is transitioning herself to one nap a day. She is 14 months.

What time does your DC nap? for how long? If it's around lunch time, what time do you give him/her lunch?

I'm soooo going to miss my downtimeChat Icon I'm not ready for this stage, but she's forcing me into.

I guess I can't complain she gives me between 10 -12 hours at night.

Thanks!!

Alex has been taking one nap a day since around 12 months or so.

She will fall asleep anywhere between 12:30pm and 1:30pm, and will nap, usually, 1.5 hours.

I/school give her lunch at 12pm.

Re: Question re: toddlers who nap once a day...

My almost 21 month old got rid of the second nap a little while ago consistently.

I give her a snack around 11:30am, then off to bed for nap. She sleeps usually an hour, max ever, which is rare is 1.5 hours. When she wakes up she gets lunch.

I miss my 2 naps...especially with the little one around now.Chat Icon

They still sometimes like their aftenoon nap, but they are slowly moving into 1 nap a day that usually starts at 10 (well really like 11 after they stop making each other laugh) and ends around 1. I give them lunch when they wake up.

DS goes down for a nap around 11:15-11:30 and will sleep anywhere from 1 1/2-2 1/2 hours. It varies. He eats when he gets up. He goes to bed around 10ish so this schedule works for me.

Grace is transistioning too- although the day care provider said she still takes two naps for herChat Icon
She usually has lunch around 11:30 and goes down at about 12-12:30 and naps for 2 hours.
She also gets up at 6am so that's why we lunch so early.

DD started transitioning right after her 1st bday.

She has lunch at 12pm and a few oz of milk right after. She sleeps from 1-3pm, give or take 15 minutes.
