Hello!

Hi MoM, wondering if you could please ask other Mums what age do babies go from two naps to one nap in the day? My little girl is 11 months old and her naps are getting shorter and shorter and she is getting grumpier and harder to put down – I would love to know what age others went to one nap. Thanks!

  • For us 12 to 15 months


  • Around 10-12 mths


  • Both of my children were about 12 months old when they went to 1 sleep during the day rather than 2


  • My daughter was only having an afternoon nap at 12 months of age


  • my two boys were about 1 yr old, my 21 month old still sleeps 1-2 hrs..


  • I have found this to be an individual choice by all of my children, one never slept during the day & just screamed instead whenever put down for a nap, one napped several times a day for 20-30 mins period of time. One was twice a day regular as clockwork with timing 9.30 – 10.30 & 1.45 – 2.45. One just slept when grumpy around 11.00 for 1to 1 1/2 hrs a day. they all varied at different times that they stopped this between 3 -4 yrs except the one that never slept.


  • I have an 8 month old and we are still on 3-4 naps a day because she has such short naps and is so grumpy if I don’t put her down. Would love to know how to extend sleeps so we can drop to two.


  • I would say for most its about 12 months of age.


  • Im really surprised experts claim toddlers should have 2 sleeps until they are 2yrs, my child dropped one sleep the week of her first birthday and no one I know with a child under 2 has 2 sleeps a day! But they are all different – my friends daughter had a day sleep until she went to kindy!


  • My son Wentworth 2 to 1 at about 15months of age.


  • around 1 year old
    my boy is almost two and mostly will have 1 sleep a day


  • 1 year


  • Around a year I think:)


  • My bub has just hit one and her napping varies from day to day depending on what is happening. After play group she needs the two naps and other play date type outing s, I just follow her queues at the moment as she is changeling and growing so fast.


  • I think around 12 mo
