I don't understand how they get all of the kids to sleep but they do. Now he sleeps from about 12:30-2:30/3 at daycare and from about 11:30/12-2:30/3 on the weekends. It's awesome. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-takes-one-nap#post-1411384 Mon, 10 Feb 2014 10:20:29 +0000 bushelandapeck 1411384@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>12-2pm or so most days. If we take him anywhere in the car between 10:30-12 he will fall asleep so we try to avoid that if possible. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-takes-one-nap#post-1411349 Mon, 10 Feb 2014 10:11:19 +0000 MamaMoose 1411349@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@scg00387: I can't blame her since apparently I also refused to ever nap because I was afraid I was missing out on fun! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-takes-one-nap#post-1411346 Mon, 10 Feb 2014 10:10:00 +0000 loveisstrange 1411346@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When she does nap, it's 12-2/1-3 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-takes-one-nap#post-1411333 Mon, 10 Feb 2014 10:05:01 +0000 immabeetoo 1411333@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MamaMoose: ugh. I'm pretty confident G would do the same thing in that situation. I feel for you! I don't think I could sleep in a room full of people either. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-takes-one-nap#post-1411311 Mon, 10 Feb 2014 09:56:44 +0000 Smurfette 1411311@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MamaMoose: R naps bad now cause she doesn't want to miss anything. It will be interesting to see how she does when the lights are out and everyone is supposed to be napping at the same time. That is the scheduled nap time, not sure how much the kids actually nap though. I don't think she is ready for one nap..... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-takes-one-nap#post-1411304 Mon, 10 Feb 2014 09:54:11 +0000 MamaMoose 1411304@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Smurfette: If your day care can get an entire room full of kids to ACTUALLY nap that long... I will quit my job and move to Atlanta right now so we can sign up!!! M naps so badly at school. She likes to go around and "help" the other babies fall asleep and then she thinks it's her own time to play by herself with the teachers!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-takes-one-nap#post-1411224 Mon, 10 Feb 2014 09:25:51 +0000 Bao 1411224@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are playing with nap times right now. Yesterday it was 2-4:45, the day before it was 1:00-3:45. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-takes-one-nap#post-1411163 Mon, 10 Feb 2014 08:58:26 +0000 Smurfette 1411163@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am not looking forward to this! R moves up rooms next month, and they nap 1130-230. So we are going to try and stick with that on the weekends. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-takes-one-nap#post-1411050 Mon, 10 Feb 2014 07:43:02 +0000 looch 1411050@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My son transitioned to one nap around 20 months. If he's at home, the nap is normally between 1 and 3. At school, it's about an hour, give or take.</p> <p>We do our activity in the mornings on the weekend. On Saturday, we go to soccer at 10 and are home for lunch then his nap. On Sunday, we go grocery shopping and to the car wash (he loves the car wash) and then we stop by my parent's house. We may have lunch out, but we're always home for the nap. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-takes-one-nap#post-1411044 Mon, 10 Feb 2014 07:38:14 +0000 travelingnanny 1411044@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I put the baby down between 12 and 1 (depends when we get home from our morning adventure) and they will sleep between 2-3.5 hours. Sometimes they sleep 4+ hours but that is typically on a Monday after not napping all weekend. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-takes-one-nap#post-1411017 Mon, 10 Feb 2014 06:59:39 +0000 mediagirl 1411017@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She naps from 12-3 or anytime between 12 and 4. We do everything we want to do in the morning expecting that naptime will take up the afternoon. If we need to do anything later, we go after she wakes up. Naptime, like bedtime, in our house is sacred. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-takes-one-nap#post-1410982 Mon, 10 Feb 2014 02:10:20 +0000 lavender 1410982@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>M gets up at 7-7:30 on the weekends and takes her nap after lunch around 1 for 2 or 3 hrs with a 7 pm bedtime. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-takes-one-nap#post-1410973 Mon, 10 Feb 2014 01:24:44 +0000 sandy 1410973@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At 26 months she naps 2:30-5:00 and bedtime is at 8:00. She wakes up between 7:30 and 8:00. Her one nap used to be as early as noon around 14 months moved to about 1:30 around 20 months and now at 2:30 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-takes-one-nap#post-1410955 Mon, 10 Feb 2014 00:23:37 +0000 immabeetoo 1410955@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MamaMoose: he's been on one nap since 11 months; it started out around 11 and slowly shifted back, it's been at 1 since 13 months. Usually 1-3. He's never been a carseat napper, but every once in a while he will surprise us but (knock on wood) it's always ten minutes or less and we're home, and he eats and then goes down a little later. </p> <p>I try to be in the car and headed home by 12:00. I hear you, it's almost impossible to have him wake up, have a snack, and get out the door to do anything much before it's dinner time! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-takes-one-nap#post-1410927 Sun, 09 Feb 2014 23:40:43 +0000 Mrs Green Grass 1410927@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ours is around 12 or so. I also can't do much in the morning or he'll fall asleep. But at least the nap is predictable... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-takes-one-nap#post-1410903 Sun, 09 Feb 2014 23:11:33 +0000 Mamasig 1410903@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Usually starts around 1 (give or take 30 minutes) and lasts anywhere from 1.5-3 hours (usually closer to 2). Though some days, he has skipped nap completely. He can fight it hard!</p> <p>When we are out and about on the weekends, he usually just naps in the car. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-takes-one-nap#post-1410880 Sun, 09 Feb 2014 22:55:37 +0000 JoyfulKiwi 1410880@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>He does about 12-2pm. Sometimes he'll fall asleep earlier but his naps are usually 2 hours (at home and daycare). We run errands in the early morning (like 8am) when we can and make sure we're headed home by 11, because a 10 min snooze in the car doesn't really mess him up.<br /> If we do a day trip (1hr + in the car), he usually ends up doing two naps - on the way there and on the way back. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-takes-one-nap#post-1410873 Sun, 09 Feb 2014 22:51:51 +0000 autumnlove 1410873@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My toddler fell asleep in the car today and skipped her nap at home. :-( </p> <p>12:30-2 or 3 is her usual nap. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-takes-one-nap#post-1410862 Sun, 09 Feb 2014 22:45:54 +0000 travelgirl1 1410862@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We've just started the one nap schedule this week. Right now I put her in her crib at noon and then she fights it until 1pm, when I get her out and put her in her stroller where she will sleep until 3pm. The whole afternoon is a write-off :sad: But I figure once we find our feet, it will be more like noon until 2pm, which isn't so bad as the whole morning and most of the afternoon will be totally free. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-takes-one-nap#post-1410857 Sun, 09 Feb 2014 22:42:54 +0000 Kemma 1410857@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Miss A usually goes down between 11 and 12 and sleeps up to two hours. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-takes-one-nap#post-1410850 Sun, 09 Feb 2014 22:37:36 +0000 fancyfunction 1410850@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>M only naps an hour tops in the late morning/early afternoon. There are those rare occasions when it goes to 1.5 but those are few and far between. Last week, she didn't nap at all for 2 days! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-takes-one-nap#post-1410809 Sun, 09 Feb 2014 22:06:38 +0000 birdofafeather 1410809@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We just changed to one nap and I have to have things to keep her busy or she whines at me because she's tired. Though if she gets a 5 minute cat nap in the car around 10 or so, she'll still go to sleep. I aim for. 12-1 nap start depending on when she woke up. Definitely do lunch beforehand! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-takes-one-nap#post-1410803 Sun, 09 Feb 2014 22:02:49 +0000 Weagle 1410803@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>1-3/4. From what I can tell, that's pretty much the standard toddler nap time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-takes-one-nap#post-1410797 Sun, 09 Feb 2014 21:59:29 +0000 MrsF 1410797@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>M naps from 1-3 (sometimes 4 if we're lucky!). She's been on one nap for a little over a month and she seems so used to it that she's not falling asleep in the car anymore. That definitely makes things easier! I do find it hard to cut that big chunk out of the afternoon, but napping at 1 has definitely worked better for us than 12 would. It's pretty much impossible to do anything after the nap other than a quick trip to Target or the playground </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-takes-one-nap#post-1410794 Sun, 09 Feb 2014 21:56:28 +0000 hilsy85 1410794@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Currently he naps from 11/1130 for about 1.5 hours. I am hoping that it moves back to 1-3 or so because right now is really tough with lunch and classes. </p> <p>I have just been trying to only go places that are close by in the morning, otherwise, he will fall asleep in the stroller; same thing for going out around 3 or 4--he will fall asleep again if I'm not careful. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-takes-one-nap#post-1410787 Sun, 09 Feb 2014 21:49:48 +0000 yoursilverlining 1410787@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She naps after lunch for about 2 hours. She was a total crap napper until she hit the toddler room; now she sleeps well, they must run her ragged! Haha </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-takes-one-nap#post-1410784 Sun, 09 Feb 2014 21:47:31 +0000 lemondrop 1410784@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We go out in the mornings to run errands and come home for lunch then a nap. He usually sleeps from 2-4pm.</p> <p>We turned him forward facing a couple months prior to turning 2, and he very rarely falls asleep in the car anymore. </p>
