Hello ladies!
I'm sorry, I'm back
We went away on holidays (went back an hour in time zone) and things were crazy in that he was extremely upset the entire time we were away. I tried to keep naps and bedtime the same but we had to remind ourselves it was a holiday for us too. He was having naps of 30-45mins Max an hour in the car/pram. Pram nap meant a lot later nap of 2/2.30 until just after 3 rather than his usual 1-2 in bed.
What was amazing was that he did not fuss one single bit in all the hotels and motels we stayed in each night. He told me to go away and was asleep in 30-45mins just quiwtly lying there. Same for naps if it was in a bed (asleep within 15mins) but I was letting him sleep until he woke (Max 1hr20min)
First night back home and he did the same, and slept until past 7.30 - it was fabulous but I assume this was accumulated OT and the timezone change. But now, every nap and bedtime he cries and screams for me to come back complaining about not enough toy cars in the bed or requesting the door open when it is open (we then go through 1million variants of open before I say enough is enough).
We also had a 1hr night waking last night from 11-12 crying and upset and getting out of bed. Wakeups are back to well before 7 but he just lays quiwtly or chats until 7 on his gro clock.
Today I woke him at 2 after into bed at 1 (asleep in 5mins!!) and he was SO angry with me and was grumpy and upset - by bath time he was bouncing off the walls and very excitable but still upset and crying when leaving his room.
I just don't know what to make of it - I'd really hoped the change at BT would continue once we got home. It makes sleep times so stressful.
Do you have any ideas? Thanks so much.
