Maci gets up between 7/half7, she has a nap 2-3 then we go in bath and bed at 7.30/8ish, she's an absolute nightmare to get to sleep of the night, sometimes takes a good hour.. what are your nap/bedtime routines with your toddlers? What am i doing wrong that she just doesnt want to sleep of the night?

Have you tried bringing the nap forward a little earlier? My 19mo rarely naps. If he doesn’t nap he will go to bed at 7 and straight to sleep x

I think thats what I'll have to try, my OH says cut out the nap, but she's proper mardy come 5 o clock without a nap lol x

My almost 2 year old is up at 7ish, nap at 12:30pm until 2pm then bed at 7pm. They say they need at least 5hours of awake time between sleeps so I agree to bring the nap forward to avoid her getting overtired before nap time and then not tired enough before bedtime, we recently did this and it’s worked great we were putting her down at 1:30pm but now do it an hour earlier xx

Well im at work myself so i only get it weekends 😂 but shes just none stop. She starts getting ready for bed at 7.15 after bath, then gets on sofa and thats when shes then allowed dummy and tablet to watch for half hour, x

My little boy cut his nap at around the same age as your daughter. He is vile come 5pm but it has to be done for him to go down at 7 or he's up half the night kicking off, he usually goes 7-7 now x

Yeah when she doesnt have a nap she's a nightmare but she does sleep straight through with no problems, think if the earlier nap doesn't work then we'll have to cut it out altogether tbh x

@sarahjane__it doesn't get any easier, Kylan's still up kicking off 🙄.. Wants me, then daddy, then both, then neither 🙈. He's been a right pain at bedtime for about a week now x

I’d say maybe cut out the nap. It will take some time to adjust to but it might be what she needs. My LG stopped napping completely by 2. I knew if she napped then there was be trouble getting to sleep. It was hard but after a couple of weeks she adapted her body to it. I’d prep dinner in the morning or afternoon so come tea time it was quick so she had her dinner early and bath etc. X
