Is anyone else’s 2 year old not napping ? She is up at 9am and is supposed to nap at 2, but doesn’t and goes to bed at 9. Our day is full of activity so I’m not sure what’s going on

My daughter was born July 2022 and she stopped napping at Christmas.

My October baby stopped napping right before she turned 2. My older daughter who is almost 4 stopped at 2.5. So, she may be ready to drop the nap and adjust her bedtime.

Common to have a 2.5 year old nap strike. Keep offering the same nap everyday even if it ends up just being quiet time! Look at schedule too.. maybe needs to be woken up earlier and go to bed earlier.

My son stopped napping about that age maybe before actually

My daughter born in June stopped napping at Christmas, I’ve tried to get her to nap and she just won’t have any of it anymore. She goes to bed at 6 and wakes up at half 7.

Does she not go to bed earlier if she doesn't nap?

yes by an hour! If she does nap she will be in bed by 10 but maybe not officially be in a deep sleep by closer to 11. Without a nap maybe 9:30 she will be out

Right there with ya…. I’m exhausted

Mine skips a couple naps a week. I just have to make sure he has a full belly after lunch and I take him outside to play if it’s sunny. Then I tell him it’s quiet time. I turn on flowing water nature videos that show waterfalls and creeks flowing with the sound off and I turn on the fan and hold him and he’s out in a few minutes. But there are days where we don’t get to do this routine and he skips his nap 🥴

Mine stopped napping ages 2 so she probably doesn't need a nap anymore

Yes! My dude has been WILD these last few weeks and he is also trying to not nap! 😩 he wakes around 7, and will stay up until 8:30!

My daughter is about the same. She skips her nap every few days maybe about 1-2 times a week lately, despite activities and being outside. Lately she naps best in her stroller while we’re out walking around the city 🤷🏻♀️ when she doesn’t nap she’s in bed by 8/9 and awake by 7/8 when she naps she’s asleep by 10/10:30 and wakes up around 8:30/9
