Title: Sleep check for 13 month old
Post by: Emmajayne on June 25, 2016, 20:15:44 pm
Hello

My little boy is generally a good sleeper but recently has started waking quite early (before 6am) and so I just wanted to check our routine was OK. We have been following EASY since he was about 4 months old but it is quite hard now he is at nursery. TYpically his day looks like:

Awake: 5.45
E: 7am
Then play time
S: 10.30 - 12.30
E: 1.00
More play time/walk etc & snacks about 3pm
E:5.30
Play time, bath bed and wind down
S: by 7pm

He sometimes has an afternoon nap at about 4pm but only if we are in the car really. I am wondering if his afternoon A time is too long - is that why he is waking earlier? He is normally rubbing eye/yawning by 10am.

Thanks in advance :)

Yep Honey - you might be right that his early wakings are a result of quite an early nap for a 1yo and a loooong A till bedtime. If you think he is really ready for one nap (moving a nap won't help is he is in general not ready for two long As), I would try to very slowly and gradually try to move this nap closer to 11:30/12:00 at least. Do you think it's possible?

following s we are having the same issues plus night wakings. no matter what I do, even if I try BT at 6pm she won't go down before 7pm, probably because she is already OT by 6pm...

Following as I'm in a similar predicts meant trying to move the nap later with mixed results haha
