B.N.
A very good friend of mine (mother of 2 grown children, a gradn mother, previously a preschool teacher & daycare provider) told me something very wise.... once we get used to something with our kids, they change!! My VERY active son is 13 months old and is HARD to get down for even one nap (and sometimes that one nap is only 20 minutes)- he is always concerned that he will miss something. He has been this way for about 2 months. And then this weekend he took 2 naps each day - CRAZY! As long as she is acting fine I say, just relax and go with the flow. My son's doctor said that child should get 12 hrs of sleep on average everyday. I told him that my son was only getting between 10 & 11. He told me not to stress as long as he was acting fine and sleeping well throughout the night. You are a good mommy and your daughter is just going thru yet another change. Everything will be fine. Just take a deep breath and know that you have a happy healthy daughter who loves her mommy!!
