My DD is almost 1. Up until now she has had 2 daytime sleep. One at 11 and one at 3.30, each about an hour long.

For the last week her 11am sleep has blown out to around 2-2 1/2 hours in length and she's refusing her afternoon sleep. Ive tried putting her down a bit later, around 5, but she still refuses and doesnt get tired until around 6.30. Bed it normally 7.30.

Everything Ive read says most bubs still have 2 day sleeps until around 18 months. Is she too young to have only 1 day sleep? Should I keep trying to get her to have 2 a day?

Thanks for any advise/stories in advance :)

My DS was about 10 months as I was struggling getting him down for two.

He's now just over two and doesn't have a sleep at all anymore :no:

My DS was 12 months old when he dropped his morning sleep. He now sleeps for 2 hours around 1:30pm.

DD was about 11-12 months when she dropped to one day sleep.
She's now 17 months old and some days we struggle to get her to even take 1 nap!

I think with things like naps it is best to just take your lead from your bub.If they don't need all that sleep then trying to force them is just going to make them grumpier than if they missed a second nap.

My DD some days only has one nap...actually most days, and she is 11 months. Usually she will sleep 10.30- 12.30 then stay awake til 7pm!
