Toddler Moms - how much does your dc sleep?

Just wondering what everyone else's schedule is like.

Sarah will go down around 9pm, get up at 6-6:30am. She naps from 10am - noon or 12:30 and then wants another 2 hour nap at 3:30 or 4. I have been trying to get her to 1 nap a day, but she just won't give up the morning one, she'll even sleep on the floor in the den if I don't bring her up to her crib. And if I keep her from taking the afternoon nap she'll go to bed around 7:30, but she's really cranky starting around 5pm.

Jesse is in bed sometime between 6PM-7PM and is up at 6AM - every day. Sometimes he takes a nap, sometimes he doesn't. If I'm lucky, I'll get a one to two hour nap sometime during the day.

My son turned 3 in July and he sleeps from about 8:00 until 6:30. It's not enough, IMO. He gave up napping before he turned 2. The only way he sleeps during the day is if he's in the car.

My 1 year old sleeps 7:30-6:30 and takes a 1 - 1 1/2 hour nap in the late morning and a cat(car)nap in the afternoon of about 1/2 hour.

Kevin is 19 months now. He goes to bed around 9/9:30ish and sleeps to about 7:30/8ish (on a good day). He is still teething pretty bad so we have good and bad weeks...bad weeks/nights include being up 1-3 hours a night and getting up before 7am.

He is on one nap anywhere from 1-2 hours a day around 12:30pm.

Andrew is almost 28 months. His bedtime is 9 p.m and he sleeps until at least 9 a.m., sometimes longer! He takes a nap when we are home and its usually around 2 p.m. for 2+ hours. If we are out and such, he'll skip his nap, be a terror and then go to bed around 8-8:30.

Maddie turned 3 in June. Total 12.5 hours. Not enough in my opinion.

She wakes up at 6:30am (we have to be out of the house at 7am so it's not negotiable).

She has one nap at school at 1pm-ish for 2 hours. If they didn't wake her up, she'd easily go for 3 hours.

She's put to bed 7:30-8pm. Gets up repeatedly for drinks of water, potty & then at 9pm tells me she can't sleep. She's put in my bed for 3 minutes & conks out. Then I move her to her own bed.

Re: Toddler Moms - how much does your dc sleep?

Dominic is "supposed" to go to bed at 8:30pm....but thanks to his DD and his GF, he goes to bed around 10pm-ish! They have no structure in that house and no specified bed time. Unfortunately, since we have joint custody and he lives there half the week and with me the other half it makes it nearly impossible to establish any kind of routine. Which is what a 2yo needs.

It's a shame because prior to our split 8 mos ago, my son was in bed at 8pm(8:30 latest) and he would sleep through till about 7am. Then again, he was also consuming only organic foods (what I eat) and never had sugary cereal, candy, soda or sweets. I did not even feed him Mac-n-Cheese. Now,all he eats is junk (burgers, hot dogs, MAC, Cereal loaded w/ sugar, cookies, icepops etc...) All because that is what THEY do when he is there and it's so hard to revert him back when he is with me, UGH! Also, He would occasionally wake up in the middle of the night w/ a bad dream or something and still does sometimes but for the most part he sleeps all night till at least 7am, sometimes later.
