Get of the details of transitioning your toddler to a one nap schedule. What are the signs your baby is ready? How do you make the change from 2 naps to 1?
Number 1 Tip for Short Naps
When I have a discovery call with tired parents to discuss their baby’s sleep, short naps are the most common struggles they mention. They tell me they spend 30 minutes trying to get their baby to fall asleep only to have them wake up 30 minutes later. If you have a baby that naps 4 times a day, putting them down could take up hours of your day. Rough!
Is Your Baby Overtired?
Here is a situation that most parents call relate to - your little one (especially a toddler) is full of energy and even entertaining the room with their charm. You are enjoying the spectacle and thinking that he is clearly not tired, even though it’s 8 pm. So you let him stay up a little longer.
That’s when the trouble begins and bedtime becomes a battle. The meltdowns start and getting him to sleep is a hot mess. Your baby is now overtired.
