When did your kids give up napping and what did the transition period look like?

Daria doesn't get tired enough for a nap until it is time to wake up from one, but gets overtired and doesn't feel well without one at all. Surely a 17 month old is waaaay to young to give up napping???

I guess she has to get used to you doing things eventually. I try to limit day chores. Ironing I do in the evening and upstairs I do at the weekend. They either follow me around or I give them a snack & put the tv on lol.

@sara-lou86 I so hope it is just a phase! I would love it if she had at least a short nap till she is at least 3...

@kayteamay I think Daria is the same. If I allow her not to nap she gets really tired and is either really surpsessed compared to her usual self, or starts crying about 3-4 because she is overtired :(

Putting her down when she is fighting it is not a very grateful job either, today it took me 2 hours and she napped for 1. The 2 hours neither of us enjoyed, they were wasted, and bed time was late and not easy either.

And if she is awake all the time, when do I even do my chores? She hates it when I cook, if I clean, she makes a worse mess while I'm cleaning by trying to help, or just cries, can't iron in front of her because she crawls under the board and pulls the cord :///

Lola stopped napping at about a year and a half. She went the whole day without napping but would get really grumpy! She still gets grumpy and sometimes falls asleeo but it depends if shes had a busy day or didnt sleep well the night before x

I would say the average age is between 2-3years. But I have known children to nap over 3years and some to stop before 2. Morgan stopped having naps around 2 for a little while then started needing them again until he was about 2 1/2years.

For Fun

With most of us in a sleep regression or exhausted from being working moms, or just plain bored I figured it would be fun to get a little game started... so who's up for 2 truths and a lie? It's easy.. you post 3 facts about yourself, 2 true and 1 lie and when you guess you post yours here's mine:

Yep your right Mary. I only have one. Want more but haven't got there yet!!!
Omg keep that pack away from me ?
Gee I'm late and missed so much. Can't wait to come back later and read them all.
