DD is only 16 months, I have been pretty strict with her naps b/c she isn't that easy going when it comes to sleep so I try not to mess it up! She does nap on the go at least once a week and I wear her. That nap is def shorter, but better than nothing!

DS (3y) only naps in daycare anyway and so he just goes to bed a lot earlier on weekends. DD (15m) will often not nap in her crib when we're out on the weekends or during travels. While we were vacationing last month she just took 2 45min carrier naps a day or slept in the car. Luckily both my kids are very flexible in that regard.

But he drops a nap here or there, I'd say average once a month. He's 34 months.

He is 2.5 and still takes a 2-3 hour nap every day. caterw on "How often does your LO miss naps?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-does-your-lo-miss-naps#post-2520423 Sat, 09 Apr 2016 11:39:57 +0000 caterw 2520423@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Lately, my DD hasn't wanted to take her nap until 2:30-3 and she likes to take a 3 hour nap.... If she isn't sleeping by 3 at the latest I just skip the nap so she can go to bed at a reasonable time. I don't mind if she wakes up at 6, eats dinner, plays a bit before her bath, and goes to bed at 9 but any later bedtime than that and I am pooped! We also sometimes skip her nap if she falls asleep in the car. She refuses to fall back asleep after a car nap so I just drive around for a little bit and let her sleep longer.

They both do well without a nap and I'm not structuring what little family time we have around naps.

That happens anywhere from 2 to 4 times a month I guess. Her two year old starts to show when she skips a nap. I don't care how east she goes to bed, it's never worth it to me. We value a good nap around here! That's being said, life happens so whatever.

There's literally never been a single thing we've wanted to do that we felt was worth missing a nap. (19 months today). The only time it's happened semi intentionally is when we have to fly somewhere. It's just hard to make travel plans around a nap and he rarely naps "on the go". But I still usually try. Those days are usually a disaster. He has very high sleep needs. erinbaderin on "How often does your LO miss naps?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-does-your-lo-miss-naps#post-2520336 Sat, 09 Apr 2016 07:34:50 +0000 erinbaderin 2520336@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Pretty much never - at the very least we try to get in a car nap. lawbee11 on "How often does your LO miss naps?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-does-your-lo-miss-naps#post-2520332 Sat, 09 Apr 2016 07:28:31 +0000 lawbee11 2520332@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Maybe once or twice a month? I hate when she misses her nap. matador84 on "How often does your LO miss naps?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-does-your-lo-miss-naps#post-2520331 Sat, 09 Apr 2016 07:27:27 +0000 matador84 2520331@https://boards.hellobee.com/ All the time when they are home with us...they never nap anymore! Ugh.

He's skipped them on his own a few times though. delight on "How often does your LO miss naps?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-does-your-lo-miss-naps#post-2520326 Sat, 09 Apr 2016 07:12:57 +0000 delight 2520326@https://boards.hellobee.com/ It is very rare that we miss nap. DD is 2.5 and I think it has only happened twice. daniellemybelle on "How often does your LO miss naps?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-does-your-lo-miss-naps#post-2520275 Fri, 08 Apr 2016 23:16:04 +0000 daniellemybelle 2520275@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Maybe once every 2-3 weeks we will be busy and I will let her skip her nap. I would say more often she will have a short car nap instead of skipping altogether, though. catomd00 on "How often does your LO miss naps?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-does-your-lo-miss-naps#post-2520256 Fri, 08 Apr 2016 21:42:46 +0000 catomd00 2520256@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Never during the week, but every couple of weekends she will only get maybe a car nap one of the days. She's super adaptable though so it's not a big deal. erinpye on "How often does your LO miss naps?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-does-your-lo-miss-naps#post-2520247 Fri, 08 Apr 2016 21:36:42 +0000 erinpye 2520247@https://boards.hellobee.com/ DD2 misses often, or just doesn't take them. She missed today because we went to the zoo, but yesterday when she had one, she woke up after 45 mins and came charging out, "I'm AWAKE!" I think she's getting close to dropping naps for good like big sis did before 3.

Not ever that I can think of. regberadaisy on "How often does your LO miss naps?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-does-your-lo-miss-naps#post-2519757 Fri, 08 Apr 2016 12:05:16 +0000 regberadaisy 2519757@https://boards.hellobee.com/ DD1 (almost 4) still naps at preschool but never naps otherwise. DD2 (19m) still needs her one nap and will fall asleep in the car on the way somewhere/home.

Or you let them skip their nap that day? LO2 is 2 and the past couple of months about 1-2 times per week I have been letting her pass on taking her nap, usually when we have a busy day, on the weekends. Luckily she gets back into her groove and will nap when I lay her down the next day, and not fight it. The perk to no nap days is she goes to bed a lot easier!
