Q.

My 2 year old son rejects sleep to the maximum possible extent. He has stopped taking a nap in the afternoon. Even if he is sleepy he cries or moves his body so fast to avoid sleep. After 5 pm he gets overwhelmed and exhausted. At night he is also sleeping for around 8-9 hours only. I am concerned about his development as kids' development happens in sleep and my kid is not sleeping at all.

A. eight hours to nine hours of sleep approximately is very good for the child there is no problem with the hours of sleep ages that you make sure that your child is very comfortable because this way with a disturbed sleep also I agree the growth gets affected so make sure that your child is comfortably full with the food that you are giving
