but seth needs a nap at 1pm.. what do i do? or do i push seth back or do i not make him nap because hes been falling asleep at 9pm:eek::hair:

I am in a similar situation. My kids are similar age to yours and in the last week it feels like all I am doing is moving one child into bed as the other is coming out. DD2 has a morning nap, then DD1 has a lunchtime nap, then DD2 is back down for her arvo nap.
I am wondering when am I going to be able to leave the house again??:laughing:

DD1 has also been staying awake later at night, so I am not sure if we need to drop her lunchtime nap. (I am not too keen on this idea as it's when I get to catch up on housework or have a cup of tea in peace).

I am waiting for daylight savings to finish and will see how the girls respond to the change before I adjust their sleeps.

Sorry, no advice. I always remind myself that sleep is really important to kids inorder for them to grow and for their brains to process information, so sleep is a priority in our house. They're only baby's for such a short time..........

:hair: well shes out right refusing to sleep and wont even let me leave the room to put seth to sleep..

might have to push rubys morning nap later or else seth wont have sleeps anymore:(

there going to be really cranky when dh comes home.

i tried my best:crying:

Are you sure she isn't overtired? Just a thought cos my DD2 (11.5 months) wakes at 7am and is ready for her first nap around 9am. I know every bub is different.

DD1 sleeps 6:30pm-7am (sleeps thru) and has 2 day naps. First nap is 9am-10:30am and the second one is 1pm-2:30/3pm.

Hope your day gets better. Having cranky tired kids is no fun.

*sigh*

Hi,

I wake up my DD (12mths) from her morning nap if she doesn't wake herself up after 40mins. Then both DS and DD are ready to have a longer afternoon nap at the same time.

If I let DD sleep as long as wants in the morning she will sleep for up to 3hrs, then is awake and cranky all afternoon. I have found this is the best solution for us at the moment, because both kids sleep together for up to 2hrs in the afternoon.
