Used to be the best napper in the world- heck the best baby in the world- we had a terrific routine--
7 AM wake, bottle
7:30 bfast
9:15 to 9:30 nap
10:45 to 11 wake, bottle
12 noon lunch
1PM bottle
2:15 to 2:30 nap
3:30 to 3:45 wake
4:15 bottle
6PM dinner
7PM bath, bottle, bed by 7:30
EASY indeed.
his napping degenerated in the last month- first, the afternoon nap became a fight- he just wouldn't go down, I'd be tryinig to get him down until 3:30 by which time he was too tired and woke after 30 minutes. he just kept trying to get up out of my arms during the routine. the morning nap shortened as well, to one hour ten minutes, generally.
now in the last day or two the morning nap has become a nightmare as well- he fights that too- screaming and crying- there is no PUPD here as he doesn't stop crying even if you pick him up. i've had to take him out and distract him with a toy to get him to stop (he is so clearly tired...)
he is fussy and irritable all the time, won't eat solids either, hates his high chair, and I am at my wits end to figure out where my sweet, textbook baby went!?!
PLEASE, anyone, WHAT can i do to address this?
