Have you heard of a Nana nap?

Most definitely yes and I frequently have one!

Yes and I could just fancy a quick one now!

Me too nana54 but school pick up today so no chance.

I’ve never heard the expression but I certainly enjoy an afternoon nap now and again.

I wish I could,but I have never been able to sleep during the day since childhood.

Yes I’ve heard it and don’t like it. Don’t know why, I just don’t.

Never heard it. I'm also Grandma.

But I think I'll have myself a nana nap shortly

Yes, I’ve heard of it. Friends and family use it. Obviously it doesn’t apply to me

I'm a grandma in my 70s but never have a nap unless I'm unwell or had a bad night. If I start falling asleep during the day or early evening then I have to ask why. I do need a good night's sleep, so if I have to get up earlier than usual then I struggle to make it through to bedtime. But normally, no I'd never want or need to have a nap.

Yes. I’ve heard this being used but I wouldn’t use it myself.

Yes, but I wouldn't use it either!

Yes.
I feel like having one today.

I'm not "Nana" either.
Anyone can have a Nana nap, age and status are irrelevant, apart from babies and toddlers who have day-time sleeps.

I think that it may have originated in Australia.
I heard an Australian comedian refer to it about 7 or 8 years ago.
Could be wrong of course

Ah, that makes sense!
My DC used it first

Maybe Aussie gran can tell us if it is Australian?
I was really enjoying mine until the bell went,he still hasn't arrived today so I might be having another. It might get him here before it is dark.
I'm afraid where I come from we tell the children to have a Bo Bo's and it has hung on in our family.

Ironically, the only one in our family who doesn't nap is me! The rest can all fall asleep at the drop of a hat and love a wee nap from time to time. I, on the other hand, can't sleep at all during the day, no matter how tired or ill I am. So no, no nana naps here.

Is every femail in Spain a nana ( siestas) 😊

NanaNap is a well known and used expression in the Northeast. I’m not a napper, unless I’m unwell. (Or had a lunchtime glass of wine!).

Cheeky whatsit! Give him a saucy wink and tell him you were having a Nana fantasy. About engineers.

We call them power naps in our house, and very useful they are too!

You beat me to it lixy 🤣
Me and DP have power naps all the time.

One of the good things about being retired is that you are answerable to no one and can sleep when you like.

Well I often have a nap and did so long before I was a Nana.
