    Have a 26 month old ATM, her routine hasnt changed though from 18months.

    GETS UP: 7-8am
    DAY SLEEP: 2-330pm
    NIGHT TIME SLEEP: 7pm

    If we're out and about, or if we've had a lazy day, she sometimes goes without a sleep (rarely) - like yesterday - so we put her in at 630pm at night.she slept thru till 8am this morning....

    I have a very lazy almost 24 mths old.

    Gets up - 8.30am (on a non work day)
    Day sleep - 3-4 hrs
    Bedtime - 6.30-7pm

    She really loves a sleep and I certainly don't mind her loving it either LOL!!!

    Like mbear, if we are out and she misses a day sleep she will certainly catch up on her night sleep sleeping an extra couple of hours esp on weekends.

    Get up: 8am.
    Nap: only once or twice a week at around 1pm for about 2 hours.
    Go to bed:6pm at the latest. (probably from no naps!)

    We have a 26 month old and his routine has been pretty much the same for the last 12 months. Gets up at 6.30ish, has a 2 hours sleep at around 12-12.30 and bed at 7.30ish.

    Riley is just 2 and he gets up between 7am- 8am, has a day sleep from about 12-3 or more then goes to bed about 8.30 (sometimes later) The last few weeks he has been waking at about 3am and coming into bed with us for a while.

    thanks for the response guys!!
    as some may know although sophie is an excellent night sleeper days are another thing!!
    she currently goes down around 6.30/7pm sleep til around 7am
    have been trying to be consistant with day nap, i.e same time, after lunch etc but it is soooooo hit and miss, one day she'll sleep for 1hr 15mins others like today lucky to get 35/40 mins and its driving me nuts!!
    i was windering if i was putting her down too early for day sleep, might try putting down a little later!

    i wish this could work but she's such an independant sleeper, i doubt very much that it would work

    mbear we do activites as well in the morning! we normally go out if we need to then play out side til lunch, she goes down realitivly easily, so she's tired, jsut doesn tsleep for long enough

    I find when we 'do' sometihng in the morning, she will almost always have a good day sleep i.e some physical activity..... Letting her run outside for a while, play on the swings, have a jump on the trampoline, etc exhausts the lil one (and me )...by 1pm she is well and truly zonked.

    DS is 20 months old.

    He wakes up at about 5am but has a quick feed and goes back to sleep. He actually gets out of bed between 6 and 7am.

    He has a sleep around 12ish - anything from 1.5 - 3 hours depending.

    He goes to bed at 7pm (and is usually up at least once during the night....)
