I need some help. How do you get your kids to take a nap? My son is almost two and won’t take a nap until it’s around 2 in the afternoon and sleeps until 6. I feel like he’s sleeping to late. Am I wrong?
Things I never thought I'd say... Until I became a mom:
I'll update with my birth story once I take a nap!
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no, his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me and did something else with an other girl.... and it's 10:51 am now and he hasn't texted me at all. and after he dropped me off I texted him saying what I felt and nothing. I don't know if I'm over reacting or what or what should i do. do i wait until he text me?
Couldnt go to the hospital until I put my boys to sleep. Now that their sleeping I just might wait until tomorrow.
Everyone left me home alone my baby sleep i should take a nap but i don't wanna

Definitely too late. What time does he wake and go to sleep?

@_sheriee, he wakes up around 8 and goes to bed around 9-930.

Try putting him to nap around 12-1. Don't let him nap past 4. It might set his bedtime back a bit though. Sounds like he's over tired for nap. What I do with my daughter is she's up at 8am. Has lunch at 12 then after we do quiet time which is usually books or an episode of cartoons then I lay her down around 1ish. She will complain for a bit but knock out and wake around 3:30. It was tough at first but after remaining consistent it's gotten better. (:

Oh and my daughter starts the bedtime routine at 8pm so is in bed by 8:30-9. She knocks out quick for that.

What I did is I laid my child down and if she didn't nap then I made her stay up until her bedtime. She now wakes up at 5am eats lunch at 11:15ish and lays down right after lunch. She wakes up from nap at 1:30-2ish then goes to bed at 7:30.
