My husband and I are looking to buy the new CFMoto Z Force and we have an almost 2 year old. Is there a safe way to have a car seat in there so we can zip around our property?

We had to transfer my 22 month old into a toddler bed after he learned how to climb out of his crib about a week ago. He used to be the best napper.
I would lay him down right at 12:30 in his crib he would go right to sleep but after transitioning we’ve been having to stay in the room with him until he falls asleep and it’s now taking almost an hour at minimum every day for him to finally nap.
He wakes up at 6:30/7, nap at 12:30 for 1.5 hours, asleep around 8/8:30 at the latest.

At what point do you stop trying and try again later?

For context: Before having my son, I loved going to the gym and taking my dogs on runs. Now, we live out in the middle of no where and the closest gym is 30 minutes from us (and they don’t have a daycare) and by the time my husband is home, I’ve lost all motivation to workout.

We live on 20 acres and my husband has offered to mow jogging trails for me throughout the property. I would love to utilize these while my 22MO naps but he’s in a big kid bed and I’m hesitant about that. At most, it would take me 4 minutes to get to his room if needed, but I would start as soon as he falls asleep and would be done far before he wakes up.

Am I just being overly cautious? I remember seeing posts about people running their neighborhoods while their kids are napping and being shocked, but is mine much better?

Edit to add: I can see my house from everywhere on the property and have a Nanit monitor so also can see him everywhere I go. Also, my house sits in the middle of our property so it has 10 acres in front and 10 in back, and it’s dead center. Trails would start right behind the house and go through the entire field/woods and also in front.

Also editing to add: when I made this post, I for some reason was stuck in the thought that I would have to run the trail back to the house in an emergency when in reality, I could just run through the field and be up to his room in less than a minute.

Last edit: thanks for everyone’s input. I think for now I’m going to get some gym equipment and my husband offered to mow a figure 8 circuit next to the house where I can be to my sons room in 30 seconds if needed and I can see his window the whole time I’m running. For those who think it’s insane to even sit outside on their back porch or anything during nap time- it seems a little extreme. I don’t know a single mom and my friend group or family who has not sat on their porch and read a book or gardened while their kid took a nap.

Because I’m on my period and snuggling with my almost 2 year old and watching bluey. Of course Sleepytime had to play.

We’ve been looking for a wagon with the summer months coming up and want to make sure we are getting one that is worth the price. I am currently stuck between the Jeep all terrain stroller wagon but I don’t love the canopy and the kinder king all terrain but I’ve never heard of this brand before so a little skeptical.

What wagon do you use? Was it worth the price tag to get a wonderfold or do cheaper versions ($200-$300) work just as well?

Genuinely curious- when could you put them down and then relax without the worry of them getting up through the night?
My 22 month old has been very on and off with sleeping through the night. He’ll do great for weeks and then up six times a night for weeks and has done that since he was very young, but he slept like a champ from newborn to 6 months so at least I got that.

We are in the trenches the last two weeks. My 22 month old son has gone from sleeping through the night to up every hour to two hours (like on the dot). I have been trying not to cosleep so I don’t reinforce the behavior but I am just so tired. I cut his nap down to 1.5 hours, checked for two year molars and ear infection, stopped screen time (except we’re currently laying in bed watching bluey because we had a really rough night and got up at 4:55 😩).

Does anyone have any advice? How did you survive? How long did it last?

My 22 month old son has been up every hour at this point tonight since 8pm after falling asleep on his own. This is day 3. No teeth in sight. I’m so tired and I don’t know what to do.

I’m just assuming what this is because he’s not sick, has all his teeth but his last molars but no sign of them, and is waking 5-6 times a night, will not go to bed at his regular time, and has been ending up in our bed after almost two years of sleeping in his own almost every night. I am exhausted.
