My son is 2 (26 months) and is going through this. I am a teacher and home for the summer and he screams bloody murder at naptime “want mommy want mommy” and does NOT stop. If he does fall asleep it’s for 30-45 min and wakes up screaming hysterically. He went down no problem when my MIL was watching him. The last few weeks of June though he would nap 1.5-2 hours but it would take him an hour to fall asleep at bedtime. We were starting to think he was dropping his nap. I think he’s having serious separation anxiety now though. Only saving grace is he’s been sleeping 12.5 / almost 13 hrs straight every night. The lost nap time is being made up at night. I miss the midday nap though 😩

I am persistent but the screaming everyday at night time is causing us both distress. He will not play in his crib for rest time. We tried with toys and books and the door open. He just screams. We have no problems at bedtime.

Is it ok if my 2 year old dropped his nap, if he’s sleeping 12-13 hrs at night? Thank you mamas
