I thought the 2-1 was bad but now the 1-0 is beginning to be a nightmare! What do you do when your LO doesn't want to nap til late?
Our routine of late has been wake between 6am and 6.30am (put this down to the sun as we are approaching summer - used to be around 7am), seems to get sleepy around 4-5 hours after wake up (I push him through this), then naptime is 12.30/1pm but he's not asleep til around 1.30pm, will sleep for 1.5 - 2 hours and then bed is 4.5/5 hours after that, so around 7.30-8pm.
However we've been getting days where he won't sleep til around 2pm or will fall asleep on me or the couch between 3.45 and 4.15. I try and cut this sleep to 30 minutes but then he needs 3.5 hours A time after that before bed. It concerns me that he is having a 14+ hour day!
We have had problems for the past 3 weeks, since he got ill and the last two molars started erupting, plus I know lots of developmental things are going on, especially language.
How do you phase out the last nap? Should I be phasing it out? I do not have a strategy and its bugging me!
