One nap

Ds has gone down to one nap at almost 13 months.

He refuses to go down earlier so is now going down around 11am. But he is only sleeping for an hour whereas he used to sleep for a good 1.5/2 hours on a morning.

Will this nap go longer as he adjusts or am I doing something wrong? I am wary of him being overtired but he refuses to go down earlier so not sure how to approach it otherwise. As it stands, an hour nap is obviously not enough for him to last the whole day but he's waking at a time when it's impossible to get another nap in iyswim.

Thanks!

That sounds about perfect really, 11am is a good time for a 1 year old to be having a lunchtime nap (moving to after lunch as he gets older).

If he's only just dropped the morning sleep he'll need time to readjust. Nighttime sleep may alter too. Then he will reach a new balance and maybe increase either his lunchtime nap or nighttime sleep accordingly.
