[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wouldn’t skip the nap yet. 12 hours is a long time to go with no rest at his age. Keep his midday nap to one hour and start the bedtime routine at 6:45 or 7:00 so he is lights out, quieting down by 7:15 at the latest. I haven’t had to use this myself yet, but a friend recommended a crib tent for keeping kids in their cribs at night. It’s safe and makes it impossible for them to climb out apparently.[/quote] This. I know it may seem counterintuitive, but sleep research in children shows that “the more they sleep, the more they sleep!” Meaning your child likely needs MORE hours of sleep rather than fewer. 2 is too you g to drop the nap and you won’t make it to 7 without him being a cranky mess! The Kim West book recommendation is a good one.[/quote]
