No Nap = No Fun

This is not working out too well for us. She still needs to take two naps a day, but insists on only taking one. She wants her morning nap, and wants nothing to do with an afternoon nap. This has turned our day from happy all day to a complete whine fest from about 4:00 until Daddy gets home about 5:30, right when I'm trying to get supper ready. Then instead of staying up until 7:00 she's in bed at 6:20 every night. Monte only gets to see her for less than an hour! Today I kept her up all morning even though she was tired, then she clonked after lunch. Hopefully this will get a new routine going.

ah yes the changing of a routine - whether done intentionally or not...so much fun

i'm sure your plan will work though

My son did the same thing at that time...right around 13-14 months. He is now napping once per day from 11:30ish to 2ish... it seems to work well for us... then he goes down for the night around 7pm. He sleeps until 7:30am. Em
