Resisting afternoon nap

We are going through the same thing and he’s exhausted - we had to go back to sleep training. Apparently there is a regression at this time? Mine is 1 in two weeks

That's my LO! Well was..sometimes he fights it. Sometimes, he has two sleeps a day.

I always worried about him being awake sooooo long, but he resisted so hard I gave up trying to put him to sleep after about 45 min/1 hour, but if he was tired he would fall asleep.

same, turning 1 next week!

yes I am the same I’m not going to sit there for more than half an hour😬

I'm the same! I read somewhere that if they don't fall asleep within 15 - 30 mins, they aren't tired enough to fall asleep, so i started doing that.

Also my LO is 1 soon so don't know if it's a regression like Sara has said.

I really don’t understand sites like huckleberry they put so much pressure on parents, perhaps each baby is unique and we should go just follow their cues

Oh my goodness, YES!
100% agree. I stopped using Huckleberry because of that.

Each baby is different, similar in some cases, but very different.

My baby just turned 12 months. He started to transition to one nap a day 3 weeks ago. Now only one nap of 1.5 to 2 hours around midday. That is not a regression....I believe that regression is a term used by sleep consultants to make money, which I totally understand, everyone has to make a living somehow. But honestly, I don't believe in such a thing. Actually, I had 12 months appointment with our maternal health nurse, and she said it is totally normal by this age to have only one nap a day. I just follow my baby's cues.
If baby is resisting a nap, it is because they are not tired enough to go to sleep. just get baby into some activity to get brain working 🤓 or go to a park, read baby a book....etc.
All babies are amazing 🤩 they are so smart 🤩 and so unique 😍

We've been 1 naps here and there for a month now. My bub is turning 1 on the 23rd and as much as I try to put her to sleep, she resists it and like today, she beats her record and did 7hr wake window.

Follow baby cues to save your sanity as im trying to do with mine. 😂😂 Babies are smart and they will guide us what they want. If baby is growing and happy then we are doing our best!

My baby was doing this and I had a sleep consult and the sleep consultant said he didn’t have enough wake time in the morning which had an impact on his arvo nap.
So pushed the morning nap out 1/2hr and now he does 1.5hrs in the morning (11-12:30) and then a short 1/2hr nap (4-4:30). I was worried about it having an impact on bedtime (7:30) but it has made everything better and he will take his arvo nap now and it also helped to stretch his nighttime sleep.
I know you can’t make this adjustment if your afternoon nap is the long one though.
