My son is 10m, nearly 11 and has been on 2 naps for a while now.
We had a nice home routine of:
6:30 wake up
9:30-10:45 nap 1
11:30 lunch (as this is when he has it at nursery)
2:30-3:30ish nap 2
7:30 bed
11:30- night feed and back to bed (only takes around 15mins)
and repeat
Nursery was the same but he would only nap for around 40mins.
However, he has started refusing naps at nursery which he goes 4 days a week and so now they put him down for a nap with all the older ones after lunch and he sleeps for around 1 - 1.5 hours. This sometimes results in 7 hour wake windows.
I have asked nursery to continue to try for 2 naps but there is obviously only so much they can do. Today they got him down for a morning nap 10:00-11:00 but then he still refused his afternoon nap and so was then awake until his bedtime at 7.
I have managed to still get him down for 2 naps at home but it is a massive struggle and we have to be at home for both or else he will refuse them which isn’t always possible.
I don’t know wether to go with the one nap and try to extend it or keep trying for 2, it’s been like this for a few weeks now. Everything I have read says he won’t be ready for one nap until minimum 13 months but I can’t force him to nap so not sure what the best thing to do is 🙈 Anyone else experiencing the same?
