I moved her to a toddler bed about 2 months ago, she was 18 months old.
She was still up EVERY night 1-3 times. She night nursed probably 1 times EVERY night.
Since moving her to her bed, she is now sleeping through the night almost every night now, and hasn't night nursed since going to the bed. She doesn't even ask for it anymore and completetly stopped asking as soon as she went to the bed.
Now she also started getting up at 6 am, when it was 7-7 before. I don't know why, why but she also started to not want a nap in the afternoon.
She was taking one after lunch, and every day it seemed she was NOT tired till closer to 5. Well I can't give her a nap at 5 if she goes to bed at 7!!!
I was at my wits end, but then I started letting her stay up a little later and magic all was cured in the world! lol
She now goes to bed at 8, sleeps till 7, then naps around 3 till 4. She is sleeping an hour or two less then she used to but she is happy! Not whiney and tired all evening long when I was fighting her with nap time.
lol at spiking your kid. I was say I am going to punt Nichole | DebraLyn also stopped napping after moving into a toddlerbed, so I set up a quiet time around 3ish and she could lay down and watch a video, no playing. She would insist she wasn't tried but almost always feel sound asleep 10 min into the movie |
