When to take away a nap?

Ok...I have the opposite it seems of all the other napping questions and I don't want to ginx myself here but I've been getting two different responses to this question:

So..my girls love to sleep -_- I'm not complaining trust me but they will be 10 months soon and I've asked a few people with younger kids on when to cut out naps and which ones to start with and at what age.
This is what my girls are sleeping now:

Wake:9am
Nap 10:30am (1 hour)
Nap 1:30am (2 hours)
Nap 5pm (1 hour)
Bed 9pm
till next morning :lazy:

It's been like this since they were 3 months old.. some people say I should knock out a nap and then other say don't fix what's not broken..so I just want to know what you'se are doing for naps and which ones you took away and at what age?

Thanks

 

My babies aren't that old yet, but I'd say if it ain't broke, don't fix it! If they're not fighting the naps, they must really need them. Some babies just need a lot of sleep, and it's great that yours are getting it.

I agree. I think you should drop one nap when they fight you on it. Believe me, they will let you know when they don't want that third nap. Until then, enjoy!!

 

Totally agree with both pp! Sounds like its working for them, and its probably working for you too.. wow 9-9 that sounds like a dream!

 

Ha! I would let them sleep. They probably just enjoy it. (I do!) Lucky you!

 

Wow! You are a lucky girl!! That is great that they are such good nappers! If you do drop one, I would drop the 3rd nap, and just make their bedtime earlier. When we dropped that nap, we went to a 630 bedtime!

 

Mine will be one in a couple of weeks and still nap 3 times a day and sleep 12 hours at night. I tried droping a nap, but they just don't function well on just two. I guess my babies need a lot of sleep.

Although, it would free up my day if they didn't nap so much, for now, it works for them, so I am going to leave it alone.
