Hi Can I start a poll on what time 2 year old go to bed and do they still have a nap.

My dd 26 months goes at 7 if no nap and 7.30 if she's had one

Thanks

Lisa

DD is 2.5

She has an hour's nap after lunch. Goes to bed at about 8-9pm and wakes up at 7am. She is hopeless without that afternoon nap.

swedes - so she goes to bed that time because of the nap presumably? not because of anyone working late etc.

About 8. She's 3 in May.

My ds2 is 25 months old.
He goes to sleep any time between 7 and 7.30 and usually wakes any time between 7am and 7.30am.

His daytime napping is quite irregular now. Sometimes not at all, sometimes for an hour, sometimes for two. If he doesn't have his daytime nap he is an overwrought nightmare by suppertime!

DD 2.10 goes at 7.30/7.45 and has a 2 hr nap at lunchtime although I think she is starting to grow out of that.

bergentulip · 05/04/2008 20:27

ds 3 in May- bed at 7pm, asleep by about 7.30 after chatting to himself.

Nap about 12-1.45pm every day.

Wakes in the morning anywhere between 6.30pm and 7.30pm. Last few weeks, has taken to crawling into our bed about 2am, and then demanding milk/blanket/new nappy/water/hot water bottle - I take him back to his own bed once he's sleepy again.

McDreamy · 05/04/2008 20:28

In bed between 6:30 and 7pm asleep within 10 mins. Wakes up at 7am, has a 2 hour nap from 1pm to 3pm most days.

MiMao · 05/04/2008 20:36

bed 7.30pm / 8pm

gets up 7.30 / 8pm and very good days nearer to 9am!

sleeps in the day 1-2 hours a few times a week and does not effect bed times

Washersaurus · 05/04/2008 20:38

DS1 is 2.8yo; wakes at 7/7.30am, has no daytime nap, is in bed by 7.30pm, usually asleep by 8pm

lulurose · 05/04/2008 20:47

Neither dd1 (3.5) or dd2 (2.3) has a nap. They go to bed at 6.30pm and are up at 7.30am.

MuffinMclay · 05/04/2008 21:16

Ds almost 2. Bed at 7 (sometimes falls straight asleep, other times reads and chats and sings to himself for an hour). Up at 6/6.30.

Still has a nap. 1-2 hours. Sometimes he'd sleep for longer but I make him get up. If he doesn't have a nap (as today - MIL wouldn't let him ) he is absolutely unbearable by about 5pm and falling asleep into his food.

DS is 2.8. He usually has 2hr nap (1-3) although he can mange without if we are out for the day. He has a story at 6.30 & usually lights out around 6.45. Like others he'll often sing to himself for 15 mins or so) Normally he sleeps til 8am.

Sometimes he calls out in the night if he has lost his football shorts (he cuddles them!) but I just givem back, give him a kiss & that's it - I don't need to stay.

fishie · 05/04/2008 21:25

nappyadd ds is almost 3. just going to sleep now (screams float down stairs), dh does weekend bedtimes and is a bit slack.

i do mon-thurs. up for bath etc at 7.30 and with any luck he is asleep by 8.45. wakes at 6am without fail.

he usually has a nap of about an hour after lunch and is vile without it.

PrincessPeaHead · 05/04/2008 21:25

d2 is 2.2
naps for 1.5 - 2.5 hours in the afteroon
bed at about 7.30
up at about 6.45 - 7.15

she is like her mother - loves her sleep!

hoxtonchick · 05/04/2008 21:27

dd is 3 in june. i don't let her nap & she passes out somewhere between 7 & 8 depending on how much we've done during the day (i like to make sure she scoots a nice long way to ensure tiredness ). blooming nursery let her nap & on those days she doesn't go to bed until nearer 9. this is Too Late.

LolaLadybird · 05/04/2008 22:31

DD is 2.9. Naps for about 1.5 hrs in the afternoon and then in bed by 7 and wakes about 7 am. Sounds fairly blissful but her 4 mo brother makes up for it! Dreading the day DD gives up her daytime nap.

Kewcumber · 05/04/2008 22:34

2.4yrs - bed around 8pm wakes at around 6.30am, nas for about an hour. If he doesn't nap it doesnt make any difference to his bedtime, he just drops off faster.
