If your DC takes 2 naps...

How old are they?
When did they switch from 3 to 2 naps?
How long do they stay awake before they need a nap?
How long are the naps?

DD is 25 weeks and looks like he might be switching to a 2 nap schedule but I can't really tell... seems early?

Re: If your DC takes 2 naps...

DS is 20 months and still does 2 naps a day. I realize this isn't the norm though. Most of his playmates who are around the asme age only do one nap. My DS went from 3 naps to naps around 13 or 14 months.

Re: If your DC takes 2 naps...

My son made the switch early- maybe around 4 or 5 months? He also switched to 1 nap at around a year.

At that time he was up at 6, nap at 9- 10:30. Awake for about 3 hours, nap from 1:30-3, bed around 6.

Re: If your DC takes 2 naps...

DD is 16 months and still takes two naps, with the exception of two days in the past two weeks when she only took 1. I cannot remember when she dropped to two, but I remember thinking that it was late. Maybe 8-9 months?

ETA: Typically, during the week, she is up at 6:30, naps around 9 for 1-2 hours, up until 2ish, then naps until 3:30-4. Goes to bed between 7:30 and 8.

DS is 7 months.
He mostly takes 2 naps sometimes he will take 3 though. Some days he barely naps at all for my parents (who watch them)

With me his day typically looks like:
7 am wake up (sometimes 730) bottle
830 fruit
9ish nap
11 bottle
1230 veggie
1 nap
230 bottle
5 veggie
6 bottle and bed

sometimes if his first 2 naps are short I will put him down around 330.

DS is 11 months and naps 9-11 and 1:30-3:30.
He sleeps 7am-7pm.
I think he dropped the 3rd nap, which was really just a 30-min snooze at dinnertime, around 6m. We moved his bedtime up when that happened.
He really doesn't last much longer than 2hrs in the am before he needs to go down again, but in the afternoon, we can stretch him to 3-3.5 hrs if necessary.

DD is 12 months and has been taking two naps since she was 8 months (I can't remember before that, lol).

She usually wakes up around 7:00 and is ready for a nap by 9:30. It can be anywhere from 1 to 2 hours.

Her next nap is around 2:30 and last the same.

Re: If your DC takes 2 naps...

MY DS was taking two naps up until recently, and he is 23 months!! I wake him up at 7:30 and his first nap was around 10:30, and his second nap was around 3:30.

Now he has been just sleeping longer at his 10:30 nap.

Re: If your DC takes 2 naps...

DD decided when it was time for her to go from 3 to 2, and from 2 to 1.
around 5 months she went from 3 to 2 naps a day
and around 7 months she thinks she can get away with just 1 nap. but i put her in the crib for that second nap - she usually just ends up playing in there or standing up and falling enough that i eventually cave and take her out

Re: If your DC takes 2 naps...

DD2 dropped her third nap (which was really a catnap around dinner time) at about 6-7 months. She's 17 months now and still takes 2 naps. I can see her starting to skip that morning nap soon though.

DS is almost 8months,,, he has anywhere between 1-3 naps a day. it really depends on how long each one is and if he is in the car (he always falls asleep in the car).

DS always did two once we were on a steady routine. Anything before I never really counted since it was not set in a normal timeframe. Now he takes one at 1030 and 300
