When did your toddlers drop daytime naps?

[Ragtaggle]

Help! Am two days away from due date with ds1 and dd1 has suddenly started refusing to nap during the day. She is 23 months old.

She usually sleeps for an hour at around half one - we wake her after that otherwise she wakes up hideously early in the morning. But for the last two days she has refused to nap either in her buggy (Always been happy to sleep here in the past ) or in her cot. Today I have given up after an hour of her calling to me which turned into hysterical crying at the end. Can't believe her timing but is it possible that she no longer needs one?

My dd did this for a week or so and occasional days in the following few weeks at around the same age.We just kept trying her in her cot-think she may have cried to sleep once but she really became a nightmare with no nap,she definatly needed it.Shes now 2.6 mths and sleeps longer than ever 2 hrs or so each day!so persevere it may be a little testing phase!Really think they still neeed one if poss till at least 3 imo

ds1 is three and a half and still has a two hr nap at around 2.30pm, but he does go to bed quite late (around 10ish) and wakes at around 7.30 am.

My dd2 gave up daytime naps at 16 months, dd1 at about two years, round about the time her sister was born.

just after her second birthday

my ds point blankly refused daytime naps at around 18mths but he has slept all through the night from 6mths onwards so i realised i could nt have it both ways!
