HELP! When do I drop the naps?

Listen Later

Is my baby ready to make a change to their routine?


Dropping naps can be a scary, confusing and overwhelming time.

In this episode we get into the nitty gritty of signs to look for, ages to consider and most importantly, we discuss the HOW to do it.


| Nap drop recap |

Dropping from 3 - 2 naps (around 6-8 months)

  • Is your baby fighting their 3rd nap?
  • Is your baby experiencing a split night?


    • Dropping from 2-1 naps (around 15-18 months)

    • Can they stay awake from morning until lunch?
    • Are they fighting their first nap?
    • Are they waking early in the morning?
    • Is their morning nap reducing in length?
    • Are they waking early from their lunch nap?


      • Dropping ALL naps (between 3-4 years)

      • Are you having trouble getting them to have a day sleep?
      • Is bedtime getting later and later?
      • Are they experiencing a split night?
      • Are they beginning to wake early in the morning?


        • Just remember, these age groups are all averages and some babies drop naps sooner or later. If it's not broken, no need to fix it.
