I decided it wasn't worth the struggle. We had also moved not long before that (a month?) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-stop-napping-2#post-2389749 Tue, 15 Dec 2015 18:24:43 +0000 Ree723 2389749@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Still going strong with the naps at 3.5 and no plans to drop them anytime soon! She doesn't always sleep but she will sit in bed and read books quietly if she's not particularly tired. Her tot clock is set for a 2 hr 15 min nap and she nearly always stays in her room having a rest, if not a proper sleep, for that entire time.</p> <p>My 22 month old still takes a 3-4 hr nap every afternoon as well. God bless nap time in this household! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-stop-napping-2#post-2389746 Tue, 15 Dec 2015 18:20:22 +0000 sorrycharlie 2389746@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I cut her nap around 2.75 (when we moved) because it was screwing her night sleep up terribly!</p> <p>Once in awhile she'll take a nap on the couch or in the car if she got up REALLY early (as in, 4 am.) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-stop-napping-2#post-2389598 Tue, 15 Dec 2015 15:57:30 +0000 lemondrop 2389598@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Around 3 years old. His night sleep kept creeping later and later until he would still be bouncing off the walls at 10pm, so we dropped naptime and it drastically drastically improved. We just switched to quiet time with the ipad and if he fell asleep on the couch, we just let it happen. It wasn't nearly as bad as I had anticipated. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-stop-napping-2#post-2389591 Tue, 15 Dec 2015 15:50:56 +0000 Pumuckl 2389591@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My 2.5 year old only naps at daycare - we haven't had a nap happen at home for 3 months now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-stop-napping-2#post-2389579 Tue, 15 Dec 2015 15:38:56 +0000 BandDmommy 2389579@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My 3.5 year old naps at preschool but not on the weekends at home. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-stop-napping-2#post-2389569 Tue, 15 Dec 2015 15:31:47 +0000 fancyfunction 2389569@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She just stopped a month ago and turned 3 last week.<br /> Although she did nap on Sat which was a Christmas miracle! ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-stop-napping-2#post-2389493 Tue, 15 Dec 2015 14:39:09 +0000 Lilbear 2389493@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ours starting dropping her nap around 2 years old - once the toddler bed came into the picture. Now at 2.5 she naps MAYBE one day per week. At first I was super sad about this, but bedtime is now easier and more consistent again at 7pm now that we are sans nap. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-stop-napping-2#post-2389430 Tue, 15 Dec 2015 14:05:53 +0000 illumina 2389430@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She stopped napping a couple of months ago, so 25 months. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-stop-napping-2#post-2389382 Tue, 15 Dec 2015 13:32:04 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 2389382@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My 3.5 year old naps about once a week. Maybe twice some weeks. So I guess it's "mostly dropped." She sleeps 10-10.5 overnight. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-stop-napping-2#post-2389377 Tue, 15 Dec 2015 13:29:57 +0000 sarac 2389377@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My 4 year old has just really started to get through the day without one. Before she'd just instantly fall asleep in the car in the late afternoon if she hadn't already slept. Now I'm able to keep her awake. It's amazing. Since she was two, if she got a nap, she'd be up past 10. Now she easily goes to bed at 9, and we get some adult time (with the baby, though) every night, which is just totally new and different. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-stop-napping-2#post-2389181 Tue, 15 Dec 2015 11:51:27 +0000 hilsy85 2389181@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A few months before turning 3, he started to drop it. It was not a smooth or sudden transition, and he will still nap now at 3y2m if he is in the car, but generally he does better and sleeps better at night with no nap. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-stop-napping-2#post-2389129 Tue, 15 Dec 2015 11:18:03 +0000 mrsjyw 2389129@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>a couple months before turning 3. He was doing about 1.5 at noon, but always woke up cranky and crying. and he was getting up earlier in the morning. We dropped the nap over a week and he sleeps a solid 12-13 hours overnight. He'll do a catnap randomly, but for the most part does well w no nap! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-stop-napping-2#post-2389082 Tue, 15 Dec 2015 10:39:57 +0000 yoursilverlining 2389082@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO is 3.5 and hasn't napped at home/on the weekends for a long time. She only naps occasionally at daycare now, which has been the norm for a couple of months. </p> <p>Her nap history has been:<br /> baby - crap naps. Only cat naps, never a good napper<br /> toddler - good naps at daycare only, would nap only in the car on weekends<br /> age 3+ - won't nap unless at daycare, only randomly naps there. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-stop-napping-2#post-2389072 Tue, 15 Dec 2015 10:32:19 +0000 MamaG 2389072@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>4+ and still napping. She's only allowed a 40 minute rest period at school (M-F), but on the weekends will routinely nap for 2 hours. She sleeps about 10.5 hours at night. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-stop-napping-2#post-2389065 Tue, 15 Dec 2015 10:29:46 +0000 winniebee 2389065@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>T stopped napping a few months shy of his 3rd birthday. It corresponded to him switching from a crib to a bed. He is 3.5 and will occasionally nap in the car if it's after 1:30 p.m. I don't like days where he catches a cat nap because now that means he will be up until 9/9:30. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-stop-napping-2#post-2389056 Tue, 15 Dec 2015 10:25:33 +0000 littleblessings 2389056@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD is 3 and still naps. Not in a hurry to drop it. Her and DS are on the same sleep schedule so I get to nap with them </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-stop-napping-2#post-2389017 Tue, 15 Dec 2015 10:10:12 +0000 Andrea 2389017@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You don't have an option for 1 years old or multiple votes so I put 2 for DD2. :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-stop-napping-2#post-2389009 Tue, 15 Dec 2015 10:07:12 +0000 tinyperson 2389009@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My 3yo naps 2.5-3 hours on the weekends, and 1-1.5 hours at daycare. We're going to have to get her to drop it over the summer because she's starting Junior Kindergarten in September... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-stop-napping-2#post-2389008 Tue, 15 Dec 2015 10:07:02 +0000 honeybear 2389008@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Still napping most days at 5! It's wonderful--everyone gets a break. He has definitely made attempts to stop napping and doesn't always do it, but I implemented regular quiet time in bed without toys in the afternoon and he almost always reads for a bit and then naps. The trick to keeping the naps going is lots of outdoor exercise in the morning or early afternoon. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-stop-napping-2#post-2388995 Tue, 15 Dec 2015 10:01:42 +0000 autumnlove 2388995@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My almost 4 year old still naps. I'm not in a rush for her to drop it since she can't start kindergarten next fall! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-stop-napping-2#post-2388987 Tue, 15 Dec 2015 09:53:45 +0000 mediagirl 2388987@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>How old was your child when they stopped napping? Did it correspond with anything? Did they keep napping until they couldn't nap anymore (entering Kindergarten) or did they give it up long before starting primary school? </p>
