He even says he had a bad day at school if he got a bad nap </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-kid-was-a-short-napper-as-a-toddler#post-2555002 Mon, 23 May 2016 20:04:28 +0000 Mae 2555002@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Following! My LO just turned 2 and naps 1.5 hours or less, usually only about 5 days per week. </p> <p>She sleeps 8-8 overnight and naps 1:30-3. Sometimes she is still sleeping at 3 but we wake her up because if she naps longer she won't go to bed at 8. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-kid-was-a-short-napper-as-a-toddler#post-2554971 Mon, 23 May 2016 19:24:20 +0000 gilmoregirl 2554971@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My son is a really inconsistent napper, but he's always dropped naps early. We've had some phases of longer naps, but mostly not. </p> <p>He turned two in April and he skips a nap about 2x a week right now. Usually though, that means he crashes on the weekend and naps for like 2.5 hours. I'm hoping to keep him napping daily through the summer, and then we'll see. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-kid-was-a-short-napper-as-a-toddler#post-2554879 Mon, 23 May 2016 16:17:10 +0000 winniebee 2554879@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS1 napped 1.5 hours on the button from 14 months until about 28 months. Then he started skipping naps some days and would make up for it the next, so often napped 2 hours. But he gave up his nap entirely at 34 months. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-kid-was-a-short-napper-as-a-toddler#post-2554876 Mon, 23 May 2016 16:10:59 +0000 BabyTsMom 2554876@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@princessandthebee: @Mrs. Champagne: @FaithFertility: Short naps are great, aren't they??? What time is bedtime and nap time for your LOs?<br /> Mine goes to bed around 8-8:15, up 6:45-7ish. Nap around 1-1:15pm. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-kid-was-a-short-napper-as-a-toddler#post-2554386 Mon, 23 May 2016 05:33:43 +0000 FaithFertility 2554386@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>IDK but at 17 months 1.5 hrs is the norm, so this scares me....lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-kid-was-a-short-napper-as-a-toddler#post-2554383 Mon, 23 May 2016 05:30:05 +0000 Mrs. Champagne 2554383@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ds is just over two and has basically never mapped longer then two hours (just randomly sometimes, usually he naps 75 mins or less) and he is still napping at 2 years 2 months </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-kid-was-a-short-napper-as-a-toddler#post-2554270 Sun, 22 May 2016 20:47:01 +0000 Mrs. Cookie 2554270@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS1 never consolidated his two naps and has always napped 45 min- 1 hour since he went to one afternoon nap. it's awful especially now that I have a newborn. He's 22 months. I truly hope there is no correlation!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-kid-was-a-short-napper-as-a-toddler#post-2550739 Tue, 17 May 2016 18:27:45 +0000 sarac 2550739@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My 4.5 year old would still like to nap, but after about 4 she was able to get through the day without it. She has pretty low sleep needs generally, but she does love that nap. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-kid-was-a-short-napper-as-a-toddler#post-2550708 Tue, 17 May 2016 17:09:20 +0000 sslm 2550708@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I said other because she will still nap at daycare but hasn't napped at home in a long long time. She's 3 and probably hasn't napped at home since she was 2. She was even worse than your LO though. She was a serial 30 minute napper. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-kid-was-a-short-napper-as-a-toddler#post-2550666 Tue, 17 May 2016 15:56:39 +0000 BabyTsMom 2550666@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At what age did they drop their one nap? Just curious if there's a correlation between short napping and dropping the nap early. LO's (23 months) one nap has never been terribly long, but lately the nap is even shorter, at about 1hr, 15min-1.5 hours (insert crying face here). I'll take a short nap over no nap, though, so I hope he's not going to drop it anytime soon! </p>
