Bedtime tonight - skipped second nap?

I’ve been trying to get my 13 month old down for her second nap for over an hour. It’s just not happening. She’s been fighting it slightly for a few weeks but recently got ill and went back to definitely needing two solid naps for about 10 days. Today though she’s completely better and is point blank refusing. I tried holding her for a bit but she just kept kicking me, trying to pick my nose and giggling. Putting her in her cot just resulted in standing up, throwing her blanket out of the cot etc. She did periodically lie down but would just sit up again a minute later. Previously she would at least fall asleep with enough time for a 20 min cat nap but no dice today.

So what do I do about bedtime?

She woke up at 6 today and had a nap from 10-11:10. She’s a solid 10-10.5 hour overnight sleeper so the thought of her needing to go to bed at 6 when bedtime is usually 8pm fills me with dread for tomorrow.

Do I also trial her on one nap tomorrow?
