How much does your lo sleep during the day?
Hi, was wondering how many naps and for how long your lo's sleep during the day? Angelo is 16 months, he was having 2 naps, one in the morning 1 1/2-2 hrs and an afternoon nap which was anything from 30 mins to 1 1/2 hours. The last few weeks the naps have been hit a miss and I'm wondering whether he's ready to drop one of the naps. But then if he misses the afternoon nap he is a wreck by 4pm. What do your lo's do? x

He does get a bit grumpy by 5pm but dinner is usually about 5/5.30pm and eating gives him a boost for about an hr then we start the wind-down to bed at 7/7.30pm.
He dropped his afternoon naps whilst I was in hospital having his sister and since then he goes to bed at 5pm and wakes at 6am.

Kade's not far off 16 months and has 1 nap a day which is usually always after his lunch and is for an hour. That is all he needs however as you know he does sleep right through so I guess he doesn't need much more.
He used to have two naps a day and when he dropped the morning one I was so worried he'd be a grumpy little man come later but I just followed his lead and he was fine.
Maybe best just to let him do his own thing??
Anyway, hope your ok and managing to get a bit of rest.
Since Isobel was 18mths she hasn't slept during the day unless in car but does sleep from 7-7 most nights. (When she gets grumpy mid afternoon and still won't sleep I give her a snack and she sits quietly - too stubborn to give in and sleep!) x
My lo is 19 months old now and she usually has an afternoon nap which lasts for 1 hour ish. I miss the regular hourly morning and afternoon naps as I could get loads fo jobs done!! Ah well.
