my 14 month old dropped one of her naps.
for the first 2 days, I was able to kind of quickly notice when she got tired, was able to put her in mid day and she got a good 1.5-2 hours.

now everyday I seem to miss it. she woke up at 7 am, so I thght 1115?, nope she was screaming...
and shes suffering, bc shes falling asleep (like for example) on a walk we just took for about 10 minutes, so I quickly rushed home, and tried to transfer her. she obviously woke up in the middle, and is now screeching and wont go back to sleep. same will happen when we go in the car later, to do carpool, ill have to wake her up, and she'll scream for about 45 minutes which happened past two days.

I dont remember this small stage being so crazy with my other kids.

what should I do?

Why would you transfer her? If she fell asleep in the stroller then let her finish her nap there. I usually just take his coat off when we get home while he is still sleeping in the carriage & give him a blanket and he continues his nap. Nothing will happen to her if she wont sleep in bed. Its just a nap. I never change my baby. If he falls asleep somewhere I just make him comfy and safe and thats it. I know that if I transfer to his bed then the nap is killed.
