How many naps does your 18 months old take?

She used to take 2, one around 9:30am and one around 2-3pm. Now she usually skips one...is this normal?

Re: How many naps does your 18 months old take?

ds dropped one nap at 10 months.. he just takes one nap

Re: How many naps does your 18 months old take?

One nap since 11 months old... but I think it also depends on how late your DC sleeps, how many hours, etc. DD sleeps from 8:30p-8:30a so having a nap at 9:30 like your DD wouldn't happen. She naps 12-2ish.

Re: How many naps does your 18 months old take?

my son is 15.5 months and takes 1-2 naps.

Re: How many naps does your 18 months old take?

DD#1 dropped to 1 nap at 11months. At almost 3 she still generally sleeps from 12:30/1-3/4pm.

DS is 14 mos he usually always took 2 now he fights the afternoon nap. Sometimes he takes it, sometime he doesn't. I find if I put him down earlier (like at 2) he takes it better, however it makes getting out of the house pretty much impossible during the day after the morning nap (usually 10-12)

Re: How many naps does your 18 months old take?

i am lucky if she takes one and she is 17.5 months old

Re: How many naps does your 18 months old take?

James is almost 16 months old and has been on one nap since 11 months. He goes from 12-2 usually. Sometimes it's 11-1, but it's almost always 2 hours.

Re: How many naps does your 18 months old take?

One nap anywhere between 2-3 hours satrting around 11/12

Re: How many naps does your 18 months old take?

around 18 months in when my DD went down to 1 nap. Five days ago at a little of 21 months she decided she wasn't going to nap anymore

Re: How many naps does your 18 months old take?

DD is 18 months and has been taking one nap since about 12 months. Its usually 1230-2 or 230.

Re: How many naps does your 18 months old take?

DS is 18 months and still takes two naps. 9:30 and 3:30 two/almost two hours each (in the crib at home, on the go is less obviously). I thought with my holiday schedule, he was going to go to one but he still really needs the two.

He sleeps for the night from 7:30/8 until 6:30/7 if that plays anything in the mix. This works for our daddy time schedule.

DS takes one nap from 12 to 2pm
He dropped the am nap around 11 months

Re: How many naps does your 18 months old take?

Two but I would gladly trade one if it meant sleeping through the night


( yes we tried and it still didn't help so two naps it is!)

Re: How many naps does your 18 months old take?

DD is 19.5 months. She was taking one nap around 2 (so both girls would nap at the same time) but in the past 3-4 weeks she has started to go down later and later - no close to 3 or 315 and it is very frustrating b/c she wants a 2 hour nap and I won't let her sleep that late b.c she won't go to bed (usually down 830-9). I tried putting her down much earlier and for one or two nights not giving her a nap and she would crash on the couch at 4 or 5 so she obviously still needs one - but she is hysterical crying if I wake her before the 2 hour mark. I'm at a loss. It doesn't help that she learned how to climb out of the today either.

DD#1 on the other hand at 18 months would still take 2 naps some days one around 10 (for about 20-30 mins), and then a regular one around 1.

DS is 18 months and takes 2 naps. The first one is usuall at about 10/10:30 and it's usually about an hour and 15 minutes. His second nap is usually at 3/3:30 for about an hour and 15min again

At about 16 months she transitioned down to one nap.
