DD is only 2.5 but is fighting naps like a monster lately! I know that's pretty normal for this age, but it's been happening for over a month now. She screams and cries once she's put in her crib, sometimes for 20 minutes (or more). 90% of the time she passes out and will act crabby if she doesn't get her nap, so I'm pretty sure she still needs it, but I feel awful about this crying/screaming thing. I've been consistent and firm about making her take naps because I figured it was a phase that she'd grow out of and didn't want to backslide into bad habits, but this has been happening almost daily for a while now.

Should I drop her one and only nap this young?? I'm totally open to letting her have quiet time in her room/crib, but she doesn't respond well to that offer either.
