Are you tempted to skip a nap or drop a nap?
If your baby is over 9 months old, they only need 2 naps so you can safely drop the 3rd one without worrying about repercussions.
If your baby is over 14 months old and can make it past midday without overtired signs, you can drop the morning nap.
If your baby is over 2 years old and can make it through day without acting overtired, you can drop all naps.
You can even alternate nap days when your toddler is showing signs of not needing a nap to transition to fully dropping it.
If your baby is getting too much sleep, they may start waking more overnight, wake early in the morning (before 6am), refuse their naps, stay awake past bedtime, and fight sleep.
If you think your bubs is ready to drop a nap, leave a comment below and I can help you transition.
