Hey Cath! Thanks, that's what I thought.
Yeah, I suppose it's because his early morning sleep hasn't been as good when this happens. But sometimes, it will also be in the afternoon... I guess it's just important to follow his cues.
so, here is another question: if in the pm his nap isn't as good (we are @ 1 nap in am, and 1 in pm, then catnap) then he is tired earlier for his catnap which is only around 45min. and then he is tired earlier for the night. Should I just put him down earlier then? Won't that lead up to him getting up earlier? ie: today his pm nap didn't go good so instead of being tired for his nap around 5-ish he went down @ 4:30 and this means his bedtime will probably end up being around 6-ish maybe 6:30 @ the latest because Nathan gets tired quickly at this time of day... I
don't want him to get in a habit of getting up
THAT early!
