22 month old best sleeper now not napping?

[sunnydays]

I feel for you skysue! Bad naptime equals a bad day! I say teething or not, don't let her get away with not sleeping. Go in and lay her down and tell her it's sleeping time and then leave. I would just keep repeating this every ten minutes or so until she gets the message that you aren't getting her up. Next time my 9 month non-sleeper comes I am going to do the same...now that his playpen will be in a space where he won't wake others up.

I have been and she screams her head off. She cried for almost the whole nap time today! It's not like her so i just pray she gets past this soon! she has been really grumpy all day. Her Mom says she naps at home but her teeth only started bugging her recently! I hope she is the same at home over the weekend so they just understand! I know that sounds selfish but sometimes I just feel like there happy she will sleep well at night due to exhustastion! Oh and maybe the advil they are giving her!

Sounds like a control issue to me, plain and simple. The kid feels they want to control when and for how long they nap. Stick to your guns so that they know that you are in charge, not them.

What do I do then? She has become very disruptive screams and calls everyone else name in the nap room she throws her blanket etc.

Her mother said I should separate her but she has been napping in this room a long time with zero issues. If I separate her then she will think it’s a game, no?

I have noticed its only when another 2 year old is here, today I put them on different sides the room with a large leather chair separating them so they can't see each other.

She is messing up my quite time so bad everyone is tired and grumpy. She has also become very aggressive lately. She used to me my smallest and youngest in my care and now she is one of the big girls. Do you thinks it’s a phase do to her feeling like she's not the baby anymore?

I'm starting to go crazy and getting stressed, I need my quite time to clean up after lunch, do my daily reports and sit down for 1/2 hour to de stress

Today I stood outside of the nap room door and every time she became disruptive I went in laid her down and said good night! This lasted an hour then she was quite for 1/2 then started yelling my name! She is now on the couch with a blanket and I have asked her not to move until I tell her she can get up as one of my 3 year olds is napping. She will stay their do you think her naps are done? She will be 2 years old next week. Mine is almost 4 and she still needs to nap so I am at a loss!
