If she is clearly tired and I say that she is, it's always "noooo I'm not tiiiiired." It has to be her idea haha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-ever-tell-you-that-they-want-to-take-a-napgo-to-bed#post-2416954 Mon, 11 Jan 2016 12:46:13 +0000 catomd00 2416954@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My 22 month will. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-ever-tell-you-that-they-want-to-take-a-napgo-to-bed#post-2416949 Mon, 11 Jan 2016 12:44:01 +0000 Ajsmommy 2416949@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jny1179: same here w my dd.</p> <p>She's 2 and has always been easy to go down. My relatives couldn't believe it when they visited when she was younger! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-ever-tell-you-that-they-want-to-take-a-napgo-to-bed#post-2416842 Mon, 11 Jan 2016 11:55:47 +0000 JennyG 2416842@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>All the time. He'll go turn off the TV during a show at night and say "time for books and night-night". Same for naps. I'm amazed by it. I'm sure my DD will not be quite as easy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-ever-tell-you-that-they-want-to-take-a-napgo-to-bed#post-2416834 Mon, 11 Jan 2016 11:51:08 +0000 plumble 2416834@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes most days my 2 year old tells me when she wants her afternoon nap. She always seems to get a burst of energy once she's in bed though but I just leave her and eventually she drops off :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-ever-tell-you-that-they-want-to-take-a-napgo-to-bed#post-2416832 Mon, 11 Jan 2016 11:50:40 +0000 mediagirl 2416832@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep. She will tell us she wants to go take her nap. She hardly ever tells us she wants to sleep at night, though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-ever-tell-you-that-they-want-to-take-a-napgo-to-bed#post-2416827 Mon, 11 Jan 2016 11:49:03 +0000 Alivoo01 2416827@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope! He'll cuddle up to me and his eyes definitely tell me he is, but he won't tell me himself he's sleepy/wants to go to sleep. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-ever-tell-you-that-they-want-to-take-a-napgo-to-bed#post-2416757 Mon, 11 Jan 2016 11:13:52 +0000 MoreCoffee 2416757@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Never. I would think something was wrong with him! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-ever-tell-you-that-they-want-to-take-a-napgo-to-bed#post-2416753 Mon, 11 Jan 2016 11:11:48 +0000 californiadreams 2416753@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Maybe once in his life it happened and I was shocked. He will sometimes respond yes when I ask if he is ready for his nap. But that is also rare. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-ever-tell-you-that-they-want-to-take-a-napgo-to-bed#post-2416748 Mon, 11 Jan 2016 11:08:33 +0000 SweetiePie 2416748@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not quite yet BUT last week he was playing with his toys and I could tell he was tired. We were nearing nap time so I said "are you tired? Want to take a nap and go night night?" And he dropped his toys, stood, walked into his room and waited for me by his crib. I was shocked! That's never happened.</p> <p>When we are reading his night time books sometimes he will clearly get impatient and disinterested, and he'll start to get squirmy. That's the closest he's come to saying he's ready for bed. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-ever-tell-you-that-they-want-to-take-a-napgo-to-bed#post-2416747 Mon, 11 Jan 2016 11:07:43 +0000 avivoca 2416747@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Only if she's not feeling well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-ever-tell-you-that-they-want-to-take-a-napgo-to-bed#post-2416709 Mon, 11 Jan 2016 10:46:23 +0000 ShootingStar 2416709@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope, never. But if say I'm tired he'll tell me I need a nap, lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-ever-tell-you-that-they-want-to-take-a-napgo-to-bed#post-2416699 Mon, 11 Jan 2016 10:41:08 +0000 erinbaderin 2416699@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MOMTOLITTLEB: Same - my mom babysat and she was reading him stories and he pointed at his crib and said "I go to sleep now." He's never done that with me! Sometimes he'll put his head down on me and say "Mommy, I sleepy" but if I try to then put him down for a nap he seems to get a second wind. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-ever-tell-you-that-they-want-to-take-a-napgo-to-bed#post-2416697 Mon, 11 Jan 2016 10:40:34 +0000 cascademom 2416697@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope.

But his grandparents watch him a few days a week and he announces "Nap!" and heads upstairs. He has never done anything like that for us! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-ever-tell-you-that-they-want-to-take-a-napgo-to-bed#post-2416603 Mon, 11 Jan 2016 10:00:39 +0000 Andrea 2416603@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD2 does.

I really hope the next one is as easy as he is!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-ever-tell-you-that-they-want-to-take-a-napgo-to-bed#post-2416412 Mon, 11 Jan 2016 08:03:05 +0000 MamaBehr 2416412@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes.

So off we went haha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-ever-tell-you-that-they-want-to-take-a-napgo-to-bed#post-2416403 Mon, 11 Jan 2016 07:53:48 +0000 lamariniere 2416403@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My youngest has just started saying "I'm tired mama", but if I offer to put her down for a nap, she's not interested. :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-ever-tell-you-that-they-want-to-take-a-napgo-to-bed#post-2416396 Mon, 11 Jan 2016 07:44:56 +0000 matador84 2416396@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>He'll go, "Mom, I'm so sleepy!" </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-ever-tell-you-that-they-want-to-take-a-napgo-to-bed#post-2416343 Mon, 11 Jan 2016 01:11:21 +0000 daniellemybelle 2416343@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, LO tells me that she's tired or sleepy all the time. Usually around 11am even though naptime isn't until 1pm :bummed: She is a late riser though so I'm not sure what that's about! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-ever-tell-you-that-they-want-to-take-a-napgo-to-bed#post-2416317 Sun, 10 Jan 2016 23:45:48 +0000 autumnlove 2416317@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We had a movie night on Friday but it was cut short halfway through because LO 1 told me she was tired. LO 2 will NEVER admit to being tired and she just gets cranky. </p>
