Ds not sleeping at nursery

[inga]

My 14 m old ds sleeps twice during the day at home on the weekends for 45-60 minutes each time. He used to sleep twice a day at nursery too but for only 30/45 minutes each time. Lately he is only sleeping once during the day at nursery for a max of 30 minutes. He still goes to sleep at the same time at night and wakes up at the same time in the morning regardless (rather annoying too!) Has anyone else experienced the same thing? Should I be worried. He has also recently started crying once or twice a night so much so that we have had to go in and settled him, which he does almost instantly. Could this be a link? Can't see how...
Advice/help most welcom.
PS Ds was sort of a GF baby.

Our dd must be from the same pod as your ds - she sleeps twice a day at home, but rarely if at all at nursery. She does nursery Tuesday and Wednesday and consequently is more than a little grumpy on Wednesday evening. Thursday mornings are now a write-off as she can nap for 3 hours after breakfast. She started nursery at 12m (she's 18m now) and started this pattern from the off. It doesn't seem to have done her any harm. I think she is just too interested in the other kids and what's going on to want to sleep, whereas at home she's in her cot in a quiet dark room for her naps.

She cries out in the night too (usually either teeth or a cough/blocked-up nose) and is comforted easily enough sometimes with a dummy, sometimes without.

We couldn't be doing with GF. Don't think you've got a problem - but if anyone else thinks you have, we need to know too.

Thanks Bear, that's reassuring. This afternoon he fell asleep in the car on the way home, went down in his cot and woke up very grumpy and wailed for about 45 minutes through his bath, getting prepared for bed but has gone down very nicely as usual.

PS He is a very flexible GF baby (useful for making me put him down to nap during the day-he used to be rocked!!!).
PPS What does your nickname mean-my ds has a Bear in the big blue house ball!

He is getting older and more interested in what is going on - so sleeping must not be that exciting an alternative to play with toddler mates . My GF babies stopped their morning naps at around 18 months and DS I think earlier than that at nursery.
Maybe his imagination/dreams are getting more vivid too...
I think it's a phase

DS has a Bear in the Big Blue House ball, books, pyjamas, wall stickers etc. She demands we watch it on Five every morning after breakfast (when it's on - currently it's Book of Pooh, which in itself is a horrible thought) and that we sing the Goodbye Song together. Bear was one of her first words, so I landed on the nickname, unfortunately you can't have a name longer than 20 characters, so I lost the last e. Rereading this, you might think we're too reliant on TV - apart from 5/10 mins of Bob t/B or those awful Fimbles on "BEEBEES" later in the day, that's all she sees, which I don't think is too bad.

Other than Thursday's narcolepsy, dd seems to be becoming less interested in her morning nap and concentrating all her daytime dozing in an afternoon snooze. However that can start at anytime from 2pm to 4pm, especially if we're doing something after lunch. If we get back at 4 and she clearly wants to sleep, then getting up again at 5.30/6 for tea means that she's not always ready for regular bedtime at 7.15/7.30-ish and can get very fractious.

I agree with Pupuce about the dreams - we've put a lot of dd's nighttime shrieks down to that.
