Title: SOS-Monster Nap and Teething?!
Post by: JennVanessa1083 on March 02, 2016, 19:12:02 pm
Hello!

Quick question: My DS is currently teething badly his top two teeth. His night sleep is still pretty good considering. However, yesterday he wanted his afternoon nap a half hour early and slept well then still went to bed beautifully and had a decent night with the exception of 3 NW to nurse (I let him since he is in  notable pain). Anyways, today I did the normal first A time where I medicated him with Camila and teething gel since he was crying his pain cry for a good half hour...poor baby. He went down at 11:30, woke up to nurse around 12:15, and fell right to sleep again! I didn't have the heart to wake him since the only reason he woke up was because I made noise. He slept for about 2.5 hours. What do I do for the second nap? I am thinking of capping to a half hour to at least get to a BT of 8:30-8:45 pm (Usually bedtime is 7-7:30.

Does that sound ok? This is new territory as the with his bottom teeth he wouldn't really nap and nighttime was constant NW.

Thank you!

Hi!

Surprisingly it didn't go bad at all. I ended up just letting him sleep as much as he wanted so it did push bed time really back to almost 9:45 pm. I thought I would have a disastrous night but instead had a pretty normal night. He woke up only an hour later than usual so it didn't mess us up like I thought it would. He woke up in a happy mood too so I guess he had enough sleep. Today his naps went back to the usual lengths so maybe it was his 9 month growth spurt?
