My son turns 1 year next week. However, for the past few months we've had a NW problem that keeps getting worse. He usually sleeps from about 7-12:30-1:30am, but then is up for the next 2 hours. I was BF at that time, but learned that it didn't help, so I stopped. Sometimes he babbles, sometimes whines, and sometimes screams during that time. I usually go in to comfort him, then leave when he seems to be calm. But, like I said, this goes on for 2+ hours. It has gotten worse and worse and last night he was up for nearly 4 hours before going back to sleep. We've tried earlier bedtime, later bedtime, limiting naps, shorter awake times, longer awake times. Everything seems to work for 3-4 days, but then goes back to the long NW.
His normal schedule is:
6-7am wake up
9/9:30 - 1-1.5 hr nap
1:30/2 - 1-1.5 hr nap
7-ish - bedtime
Has anyone has something similar or any suggestions? I'm completely exhausted and something needs to change!
