How long does your 17 month old nap for?

Question

My daughter is 17 months and currently transitioning to one nap. I am trying to find the sweet spot for her nap time. If I put her down at 12 about 5 hours of wake time she only sleep for about an hour, or an hour and a half if I'm lucky. I'm just curious if that is normal for her age or should I hold out hope for a 2 hour nap. Any advise for the nap transition would also be appreciated.

Answer

My daughter was still taking 2 naps (2hrs each) until she was 2 years old. Now that she has dropped a nap she usually sleeps 2.5-3hours. She had always been a good sleeper and napper because I don’t let her get overtired. I’ve learned my lesson that if I try to keep her up for a specific “wake window” that google says she needs, then she gets worse sleep. If I put her down for her nap as soon as she shows sleep cues then she sleeps wonderfully. I always make sure her tummy is full, so basically immediately after we finish lunch she goes down for her nap.

My 18mth old hasnt napped in mths 😭😭😭

Answer

My daughter transitioned to 1 nap early (much to my chagrin) so she's only 15 months but our schedule is roughly: wake up around 7, nap around 10:30 or 11 (approx 2 hours) then bed at 6:30. If she wakes up later I will push her nap back but keep her bedtime the same

Answer

Try putting her down a little earlier then try a little later and see if she sleeps longer that way
