Her naps are the only time I can get anything done! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-in-a-bad-mood-if-lo-naps-poorly#post-1447208 Mon, 24 Feb 2014 21:54:02 +0000 Bao 1447208@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup especially since I'm pregnant and when she wakes up crying and whining, ruins the afternoon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-in-a-bad-mood-if-lo-naps-poorly#post-1447160 Mon, 24 Feb 2014 21:29:14 +0000 apis 1447160@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh yes. At the weekend, I try to take afternoon naps at the same time as DS, so ... if he doesn't nap well, I don't nap well. And then we're both grumpy at each other. Wah! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-in-a-bad-mood-if-lo-naps-poorly#post-1447121 Mon, 24 Feb 2014 21:07:44 +0000 twoofeverything 1447121@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>YES! I'm so relieved I'm not the only one! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-in-a-bad-mood-if-lo-naps-poorly#post-1446995 Mon, 24 Feb 2014 20:00:33 +0000 mrs. wagon 1446995@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>There is nothing. NOTHING. That gets to me more than bad kid sleep. I sometimes ruin our weekends when I can't relax about their naps. It's a lot better now as a second time mom and not a sahm (I'm just a lot more laid back) but it is still the #1 surefire way to get me upset. But now I rarely let it "ruin" an entire day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-in-a-bad-mood-if-lo-naps-poorly#post-1446956 Mon, 24 Feb 2014 19:27:25 +0000 hilsy85 1446956@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Absolutely! As a SAHM, I feel like my schedule and my mood are ruled by his naps! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-in-a-bad-mood-if-lo-naps-poorly#post-1446924 Mon, 24 Feb 2014 19:06:26 +0000 Boogs 1446924@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Totally. Or when he wakes up way too earlier, like the past couple of days, it messes with me that much more! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-in-a-bad-mood-if-lo-naps-poorly#post-1446869 Mon, 24 Feb 2014 18:27:39 +0000 Andrea 1446869@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not always. My older one doesn't nap so I'm used to not having long breaks anyway. It's not quite as easy as the days when I just had one LO! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-in-a-bad-mood-if-lo-naps-poorly#post-1446859 Mon, 24 Feb 2014 18:22:55 +0000 AprilFool 1446859@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes and then we both have zero patience for the afternoon. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-in-a-bad-mood-if-lo-naps-poorly#post-1446834 Mon, 24 Feb 2014 18:11:50 +0000 Charm54 1446834@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes....and lately crappy naps have been the order du jour </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-in-a-bad-mood-if-lo-naps-poorly#post-1446829 Mon, 24 Feb 2014 18:09:39 +0000 .twist. 1446829@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep! Haha as others have said, it usually means I have to deal with a grumpy kid until bedtime and that isn't fun for anyone! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-in-a-bad-mood-if-lo-naps-poorly#post-1446827 Mon, 24 Feb 2014 18:07:58 +0000 loveisstrange 1446827@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She stopped napping at 20 months. :/ I still make her lay down for an hour or so and have quiet time though, because I need the break. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-in-a-bad-mood-if-lo-naps-poorly#post-1446821 Mon, 24 Feb 2014 18:05:53 +0000 coopsmama 1446821@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh yeah. And then I text DH about it and share my annoyance with him ... every.single.time! </p> <p>Naps are God's gift to worn out mamas! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-in-a-bad-mood-if-lo-naps-poorly#post-1446814 Mon, 24 Feb 2014 18:01:51 +0000 HLK208 1446814@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yeah...mostly because I know I will deal with a cranky toddler until bedtime which isn't fun. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-in-a-bad-mood-if-lo-naps-poorly#post-1446803 Mon, 24 Feb 2014 17:55:01 +0000 winniebee 1446803@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Weagle: hahaha </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-in-a-bad-mood-if-lo-naps-poorly#post-1446647 Mon, 24 Feb 2014 16:48:58 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 1446647@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope. It is what it is. </p> <p>Normal naps for us are 45 minutes to 1 hour 15 minutes, so I'm used to no free time, like, ever! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-in-a-bad-mood-if-lo-naps-poorly#post-1446602 Mon, 24 Feb 2014 16:34:40 +0000 Silva 1446602@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! My daughter took a great morning nap, but then lasted 20 minutes this afternoon. I kept getting her back to sleep, but she'd wake up as soon as I set her down.</p> <p>I'm so crabby, and counting down the minutes until bed. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-in-a-bad-mood-if-lo-naps-poorly#post-1446600 Mon, 24 Feb 2014 16:34:09 +0000 Freckles 1446600@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes!! When LO had a bad cough she woke up 10 minutes after her nap and refused to go down! It's brutal. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-in-a-bad-mood-if-lo-naps-poorly#post-1446598 Mon, 24 Feb 2014 16:33:31 +0000 sandy 1446598@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-in-a-bad-mood-if-lo-naps-poorly#post-1446595 Mon, 24 Feb 2014 16:32:51 +0000 Weagle 1446595@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@winniebee: I know it's totally unreasonable to be complaining about it! I'm just so hung up on what she usually does and my hormones make it hard to be rational about most things these days! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-in-a-bad-mood-if-lo-naps-poorly#post-1446593 Mon, 24 Feb 2014 16:32:43 +0000 autumnlove 1446593@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, I get crabby! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-in-a-bad-mood-if-lo-naps-poorly#post-1446582 Mon, 24 Feb 2014 16:30:16 +0000 winniebee 1446582@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Weagle: 10 at night and 2 for naps is pretty good in my world lol! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-in-a-bad-mood-if-lo-naps-poorly#post-1446581 Mon, 24 Feb 2014 16:30:09 +0000 lilyann 1446581@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>hahaha, YES! I am a WOHM but on the weekends, naps are still a must! Unfortunately C (almost 17 months) refused to nap at all this past weekend except when he was in the car....Fail. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-in-a-bad-mood-if-lo-naps-poorly#post-1446572 Mon, 24 Feb 2014 16:28:51 +0000 bushelandapeck 1446572@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Um, yes! DS only sleep 10 hrs/night so naps are oh-so-important in our house unless we want a whiny toddler the rest of the day. Anything less than 1.5 hrs is bad for everyone. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-in-a-bad-mood-if-lo-naps-poorly#post-1446557 Mon, 24 Feb 2014 16:24:58 +0000 Weagle 1446557@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes. Drives me crazy. LO turned into a crazy good sleeper around 11 months. Her norm is 12+ overnight and one 2-3 hour nap. Lately, she's been doing 10 hours at night and maybe 2 hours for naps and I'm going crazy. It doesn't help that my pregnancy hormones are making me terribly impatient and moody this go 'round. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-in-a-bad-mood-if-lo-naps-poorly#post-1446516 Mon, 24 Feb 2014 16:19:16 +0000 winniebee 1446516@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm a sahm and I totally get in a bad mood when LO takes a crappy nap! Mind you, standard here is 1.5 hours so less than that leaves me basically no break all day. </p> <p>T woke coughing one hour into his nap and I got all pissy. Then he fell back asleep and I'm in a good mood again ;) </p>
