    Hi there. My little 1yo DS just dropped to one sleep - big one around midday for 2 hours. Never been a good sleeper though ....

    I found when he started crawling and 'cruising' (holding furniture and walking along) that he is KNACKERED. has she just started something new or learnt a new skill? thatcould exhaust her..?

    SammyRo: anytime I get her into a routine within a week DD's got other ideas. At least I can't get bored because she keeps me active! I've never responded to the "making a rod for your own back" comments regarding her lack of routine because I really don't mind! I sleep when I'm tired and such so why should she be different?

    mustangsachy: DD seemed to have one day sleep for 2 weeks then swapped again. Some days she has been exploring extra. Recently I've seen a lot more cognitive work. I mean she really stays still and studies a perticular toy/object/action for ages and it does seem to wear her out. Today she was trying to load the washing machine and put it on. Was quite trippy to watch. Even DP commented that she seems to be mimicking actions right now and it's amazing to see her face light up with the "OH I GOT IT!" when she does something new. I also caught her climbing which is a new thing.

    Thanks for the replies. Glad to feel that DD's not the only one out of whack

    Yep same here! My little girl is turning 1 in 3 weeks time and for the last month or so there have been days in a row where she dropped her morning nap and just had one long early afternoon nap. Then went back to 2 naps similar times to yours and then back to 1 nap again. For the last week she has settled back to her usual 2 naps so i have no idea how to tell when she will actually consistently drop one of the naps. Im just going to go with the flow!

    My friends son is 15 months old and he is still having 3 naps a day!
