My LO is 18mo old today and I believe transitioning to 1 nap but is so irritable and cranky now that I am questioning my judgement. I started sleep training early with her and she has been an excellent sleeper...2- 2 hr naps a day and sleeping 12 hr at night.

If the first nap is 2 hours after they wake up, and no more than 1.5-2 hours, they should be ready for a second nap sometime around 1-2PM and hopefully sleep until 3-4PM... then ready for 7PM bedtime. I always put the kids down as soon as they were tired andCameron Clark | baby business bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15338396824120214363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2868116625067518737.post-77572710478802031302012-07-23T09:44:35.127-07:002012-07-23T09:44:35.127-07:00Hello,

I would like to try going to one nap but I'm not sure when I'm supposed to feed them lunch? If I give them their bottle and then feed them lunch before their one nap then I feel like I am stuffing them. But if I wait until they wake up to give them the solids then I feel like it's too Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2868116625067518737.post-92081490434040873602011-06-02T11:35:47.888-07:002011-06-02T11:35:47.888-07:00a couple of ideas:

She should be getting more like 11.25-12 hours at night for her age, which is maybe why she sleeps such a long nap in the AM. <br /><br />1) is she learning to walk?? developmental milestones can really affect sleep.

My daughter is 11.5 months old and has been taking two solid naps up until this week. All of sudden she refuses to take her afternoon.

My baby, Ava, is only 11 months old but she has started to take a long nap in the morning and fighting her afternoon nap. She did this all week last week. I have always had to let Ava cry because she never wanted to sleep and comforting her didn't help.

Roughly 9AM-9:45AM and then down again at 1PM at the latest (depends on when she wakes but about 3 hours post waking). Does she sleep through the night, because if so, you might be able to consolidate but 11 months is very early to drop down to 1Cameron Clark | baby business bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15338396824120214363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2868116625067518737.post-20678896244998684642009-05-14T22:03:00.000-07:002009-05-14T22:03:00.000-07:00lily went to 1 nap around 11 months- I wouldn't ha...lily went to 1 nap around 11 months- I wouldn't have known that was what she was going for if a stroller strides mom didn't clue me in... my sturdy sleeper became troublesome- in one day our 2 naps became a 12:30-3ish extravaganza.....Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17304221651536429565noreply@blogger.com
