Okay moms I need advice. My daughter is 2 years and 3 months. In the past month she will not take a nap. She will go to bed around 9:30 then wake up after an hour and stay up til almost 3am. What can I do? I've tried getting her to take a nap and she will not. Im tired of staying up so late :(
@cjohnston, I get that.
Um you could make her do random task like picking up somewhat heavy things and moving them to the other side of the house if she likes to help out.
If she like to mimick you could do jumping jacks or swats with her. Things that will tired her body out.
She was on a good routine. She would wake around 9:30 nap around 3 and be to bed around 10. I don't know what's going on. Im not sure how to be firm with a 2 year old. She doesn't really listen when I tell her to sleep. Ive laid with her for 3 hours in the dark with no noise and she will still keep getting up and running around. It's exhausting. Half the time she wakes up my 8 month old. And my husband has to sleep so I can't have her whining and crying for hours so I wind up taking her to the living room to play with toys. They're getting there own room in the next 2 weeks so I'm hoping I can get her back on schedule because she's seeming overtired. Every once in a while I'll get her to nap at 6-7 but thats after a long day of play. Idk where to even start
When you say play you mean just toys or you take her outside .
If you take her outside and let her run around in a park with a ball or anything she will nap I ah w to do this with my kid or she will never sleep
