His eyes will sometimes start to close if we're on our way home close to nap time, but he's never really been a car napper. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-fall-asleep-in-the-car-when-its-not-naptime#post-2050711 Mon, 02 Feb 2015 12:50:30 +0000 autumnlove 2050711@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not as common for us anymore! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-fall-asleep-in-the-car-when-its-not-naptime#post-2050707 Mon, 02 Feb 2015 12:48:51 +0000 Smurfette 2050707@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Now that she is old, it is less frequent. But I still sit in the back to keep her up if we are more then 20 mins away and it is before nap time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-fall-asleep-in-the-car-when-its-not-naptime#post-2050702 Mon, 02 Feb 2015 12:46:52 +0000 daniellemybelle 2050702@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We pushed LO to one nap at 14 months, about a month ago, and she has done really well, but she still falls asleep in the car if she has been awake for 3 hours or more, no matter if it is not naptime yet, or if she already had her nap. So basically 10am-12pm and 5pm-bedtime are not good times for car rides because she is sure to take a catnap and make naptime or bedtime a battle.</p> <p>The car has always been hypnotic for her, so maybe it will always be this way? It makes me feel a little bad, like she still needs more than her one 2-hour nap, but she has done pretty well on this new routine. </p>
