Naptime dilemma:
14 month old is down to 1 nap a day. Previously sleeping 2-3 hours for that nap, when was 12 months old.
Naptime is from 1-3. child wakes up crying everyday at around 2:00. What to do?
Leave child in PNP and let them cry for the remainder of nap until they get the idea that naptime is 1-3?
Go in and tell child to lay back down, nap is not over yet? (I am afraid this will make them cry louder and wake everyone up if they see me though).
I dont want to set bad nap habits and have this 1 child only take 1 nap a day for 1 hour when everyone else is down for a solid 2-3 hours. Selfishly, yes it cuts into my down time for the day, but also the child is cranky after only 1 hour. What to do? Cry it out in PNP for the entire duration of nap?
