A member asked:
My two year old doesn't nap, if he doesn't nap he falls asleep at 6:30pm and wakes up at 7:30 am, is it normal not to nap?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Most 2 year olds: do still nap, but if he's sleeping well for 13 hours and is awake, playing, happy during the rest of the day, it is fine. If really want him to nap, you will need to gradually change his sleep cycle.
