Join for the parent table will not leverage the index scan

We have two tables, both have ~36 partitions.
This is my first query, which attempts to join the parent tables on the
columns that have been used to create multi-column indexes for all
partitions (multi-column indexes defined on session_id, detail_id in that
order):

*PostgreSQL version : 10*-- *query*

select * from dm_ci360.page_details pd
inner join dm_ci360.page_details_ext pde
on (pd.session_id = pde.session_id

where pd.session_dt >= now()::date-2;

The only place an index scan is used is to filter down page_details. In my
second query,
when explicitly joining single partitions an index scan is used to perform
filtering, and the join as well:

--*query*

explain

select * from dm_ci360.page_details_5 pd
inner join dm_ci360.page_details_ext_5 pde
on (pd.session_id = pde.session_id
and pd.detail_id = pde.detail_id)
where pd.session_dt >= now()::date-2;

--*plan*

(cost=0.57..51267.67 rows=196574 width=8202)

Index Cond: (session_dt >= ((now())::date - 2))

-> Index Scan using page_details_ext_5_session_id_detail_id_idx on

Index Cond: (((session_id)::text = (pd.session_id)::text) AND
((detail_id)::text = (pd.detail_id)::text))

I just cannot figure out why the join for the parent table will not
leverage the index,
but the join for a single partition will. We are running on Postgres 10,
and the row counts for the tables can be found below:

page_details -> ~413M
