Hi all,
Looking for some advice on my DS who is 23 months old. He has not been taking his afternoon nap lately which is usually from 1-1.5 hours. I try and encourage him to have a cuddle with me in the bed and read some books and then say its quiet time. He literally just grunts like 'as if mum!' and then he is off the bed and running around in the room aimlessly. I have tried giving him more food ( thought he just got hungry again!) he sometimes nibbles at whatever I offer him and then rejects it and starts pointing out of the door and when I have given in to find out what he wants its straight to the toy box...
We play during the day and have some running around acivities and also pop out a few times a week. I think he is over tired and think he is fighting it off as whenever I do put him in bed, he just screams but he is soooo tried, yawning, wanting his dummy, and cries at anything and everything and generally just hits me if I say 'no' at something.
Advice on what I should do if he dropping his nap and what other activities should we do? He is just on duracell batteries and does not stop to even sit down and listen to a story when he doesnt have his nap!! Sorry if I have repeated myself-typing really fast so DS doesn't del it all!
