How long of a nap does you lo take? My son still takes a 3-3 1/2 hour nap, and we often wake him up from it. He seems to really need this nap and is quite a mess if he misses it. Just curious how Lin others lo sleep till.

Ours sleeps 1.5-2 hours for nap.

Our schedule:

Wake: 7:30am

Nap: 12:45-2:45pm

Bed: 8:30pm

My son definitely still needs his nap too, he’s super active and needs that down time 😊.



My daughter also naps 1.5-2 hours.

Wake up around 7am

Nap 1:30-3:30pm

Bed time 8pm

She definitely still needs her nap. There’s been a few times on super busy days like when visiting family or something that’s she’s gone without a nap & does pretty good. She’ll get a little cranky by the end of night. But that’s our typical daily routine.



2 to 3 hours. I love his 3 hour naps! He goes to bed a little later on those days but that’s ok.


Wakes: 6:30/7 am

Nap: 1-3 pm

Bed: 8:30 pm



Wake: 7am

Nap: 1-2:30pm

Bedtime: 7:45pm



Same here. About 3-4 hours. I just let him sleep. Their brains are still developing so much, they need their sleep so I just give him however long he needs to recharge. I'm a sahm though so my schedule is based on his. We don't have anywhere to be in the mornings so if his naps run late he can stay up a bit longer that night and wake up whenever he needs. 



I have had to start capping my LO’s nap after 1 hour as she wont be tired enough for bed then. She can take up to an hour at night to fall asleep in her crib so i felt a shorter nap was needed?



My LO usually takes a 1.5 - 2 hour nap.  If he's going through a growth spurt or mental leap, it's more like 3 - 3.5 hours.  He wakes around 7am and we try do get him down for a nap by 11am, but sometimes it's a bit later depending on the day.



2-2.5 hours usually


My son still naps 1-3pm. I wake him up by 3:15 though, so he’s still tired for bed at 7:30pm, then he sleeps til 7am. He rarely wakes during the night and I’m afraid if I let him nap longer it would mess with his nighttime sleep.


same as your son up to 3.5 hours


maybe 30 minutes if we are driving in the van. otherwise he doesn't nap anymore
