At daycare her naps are shorter 1-2 hours and does them 3 times a week the other 2 days are hit or miss. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/for-parents-of-older-los-when-did-they-drop-their-nap#post-67759 Sun, 05 Feb 2012 23:42:29 +0000 mrbee 67759@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Andrea: I would love it if Charlie was still napping at age 4! Probably not gonna happen though. :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/for-parents-of-older-los-when-did-they-drop-their-nap#post-67756 Sun, 05 Feb 2012 23:34:55 +0000 Andrea 67756@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Bee: she has not napped at home since 15 months. we have tried CIO, co-sleeping, rocking, turning on the TV in the hopes she'll maybe pass out, etc. none of it works. sometimes she will fall asleep if we are out and about in the car on the weekends. she refuses to even sit in a stroller so the stroller doesn't work. at daycare she doesn't nap since car rides aren't possible. </p> <p>yup. i really really really dislike people who have 4 year olds that still nap!!</p> <p>but she has slept 12-12.5 hours straight at night since 8 weeks so at least i still have that. i don't want to think about the day when she starts to fight bedtime. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/for-parents-of-older-los-when-did-they-drop-their-nap#post-67747 Sun, 05 Feb 2012 23:01:44 +0000 SAHM0811 67747@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>3 yo she started dropping naps. For the past year it's been about 50/50 that she'll nap though so she still does sometimes. She just turned 4. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/for-parents-of-older-los-when-did-they-drop-their-nap#post-67724 Sun, 05 Feb 2012 21:32:46 +0000 Mrs. Bee 67724@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Andrea: wow she hasn't napped at all since she was 15 months?</p> <p>@tina: most kids drop their last nap around 3, but i hope charlie takes one as long as possible! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/for-parents-of-older-los-when-did-they-drop-their-nap#post-67664 Sun, 05 Feb 2012 17:17:18 +0000 Rosie Girl 67664@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At about 2, 2 1/2. He would nap sometimes, but not regularly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/for-parents-of-older-los-when-did-they-drop-their-nap#post-67663 Sun, 05 Feb 2012 16:38:53 +0000 mrbee 67663@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Charlie has started struggling with both his afternoon nap and his nighttime sleep. We can still get him down, but it's getting tougher! I figured it's just a temporary phase... at least, I hope so! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/for-parents-of-older-los-when-did-they-drop-their-nap#post-67634 Sun, 05 Feb 2012 14:53:27 +0000 Andrea 67634@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>15 months! She is 21 months now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/for-parents-of-older-los-when-did-they-drop-their-nap#post-67632 Sun, 05 Feb 2012 14:48:00 +0000 mrs. wagon 67632@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>RJ has been rolling around in his crib for OVER TWO HOURS now. He cried for about 5 minutes at the 1.5 hour mark but is happily playing with his blankie again. I just don't know when to throw in the towel and go get him... he has NEVER not taken a nap. He's always loved his sleep. He's 26 months and I just cannot believe he's ready to drop his nap. </p> <p>When did your older LO drop their only nap? </p>
