As of today, she still only took one nap. Really hoping this is just a phase. I guess I can't force the extra nap if she doesn't want it though...sigh. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-go-down-to-one-nap#post-789111 Thu, 16 May 2013 20:31:06 +0000 tysonja 789111@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For us, LO dropped the third nap around 8 months, and right now at 12 months is firmly in the two nap camp, at 1.5 hrs per nap. I hope he doesn't drop it for a looooooong time, because I love being able to go out in the early afternoons with him! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-go-down-to-one-nap#post-789045 Thu, 16 May 2013 20:21:06 +0000 Mrs. Bee 789045@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Pen: i think the average age to drop it is between 14-15 months. charlie could have gone on taking 2 naps for a while longer, and i really missed that morning nap when it was gone! that was a tough adjustment. but then it was awesome because we could go to so many places. and i couldn't wait for olive to drop to one nap so she could be on the same schedule with charlie. when she was on 2, we were always putting one of them down for a nap! now they both go down and we get a little break. phew and we need it since we usually do something very active in the mornings! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-go-down-to-one-nap#post-787094 Thu, 16 May 2013 14:44:44 +0000 Mrs. Pen 787094@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was coming on here to post this question and figured I would search for it first.</p> <p>J is 15 months and showing no signs of dropping to one nap. I like it this way! He still takes a morning and afternoon nap and each is 1.5 hours, sometimes even 2! He has always slept more than the "average" baby.</p> <p>@Mrs. Bee: @Mrs. High Heels: I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one with a 12 mos+ who is still on two naps. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-go-down-to-one-nap#post-784989 Thu, 16 May 2013 07:30:44 +0000 winniebee 784989@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At least one day a week at daycare, he takes only 1 nap, but on those days he is pretty overtired. </p> <p>At home, he's been pushing his awake times crazy far. He can go 3.5/4 hours before his morning nap and then doesn't act at all tired for his afternoon nap, so that's becoming later and later. If he slept in til 7 or so, I think he could be on 1 nap. Alas, he wakes at 5:30.</p> <p>He's 12 months and I'm going to try to keep him on 2 naps for a few more months. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-go-down-to-one-nap#post-784944 Thu, 16 May 2013 07:10:32 +0000 mediagirl 784944@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>M has had a few days of missing the afternoon nap but she definitely still needs it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-go-down-to-one-nap#post-784481 Wed, 15 May 2013 21:09:39 +0000 Mrs. Bee 784481@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>we pushed charlie to drop it at 15 months. olive dropped hers closer to 17 months. we tried to push her earlier, but she just wasn't ready. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-go-down-to-one-nap#post-784479 Wed, 15 May 2013 21:08:27 +0000 googly-eyes 784479@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have no idea, mine just dropped to 2 I think a few weeks ago!

I will give it my all that she keeps taking two though. She needs it, I think. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-go-down-to-one-nap#post-784345 Wed, 15 May 2013 19:58:59 +0000 yin 784345@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO was 15 months old, and he napped around noon. Now his nap has moved to 1pm, and I can usually get a solid 2 hours. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-go-down-to-one-nap#post-784334 Wed, 15 May 2013 19:55:22 +0000 sunny 784334@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Bao: Wow she's already down to 2 naps? Mine is still on 3! I think they're about the same age. She'll be 9 months in a few days. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-go-down-to-one-nap#post-784315 Wed, 15 May 2013 19:45:34 +0000 creativemomma15 784315@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My DS is 14 months old and still takes two good naps. I am wondering how long it's going to last for us too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-go-down-to-one-nap#post-784309 Wed, 15 May 2013 19:38:56 +0000 Bao 784309@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: I bet the consistent long nap was nice :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-go-down-to-one-nap#post-784241 Wed, 15 May 2013 19:08:00 +0000 autumnlove 784241@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>14 months.

Before 12 months though I wouldn't let her (she tried a couple times). The max wake time for bebes younger than that just want long enough for her to really be able to maintain a 1 nap a day schedule. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-go-down-to-one-nap#post-784229 Wed, 15 May 2013 19:02:42 +0000 Weagle 784229@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Around 10.5 months, LO started refusing her morning nap. She did great with one nap for 2-3 weeks, then went back to two naps that are better and more consistent than they ever were before. Maybe it's just a phase? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-go-down-to-one-nap#post-784203 Wed, 15 May 2013 18:52:34 +0000 Bao 784203@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO is only 8.5 months old and for the past few days she has been refusing her morning nap. She is acting like she only wants to take her 2pm nap. It seems a bit early to be dropping down to one nap...but what do I know! If she in fact only wants this one nap, maybe I should aim for 1:00/1:30 instead?</p> <p>When did your LO drop down to one nap? </p>
