WWYD about todays naps??

[emmas]

DS slept for about 3 hours last night, I woke him to give him medicine, he ended up being sick then staying awake for 4 hours (just short of his A time!!) then  I assume because he was so tired only slept for 30 mins and took hours to settle again, on the the saga went.  One very tired mummy!!!

Oh He is teething but also has a runny nose which I'm begining to think is a cold.

So my questions is what would you do about today?  Do I try to shorten his A time and help him catch up?

Hugs to you sweetie 

I would try to go by his cues as if he has a cold then he could be more tired anyway but if you play catch up all day you could rob his night time sleep tonight and that may induce a pattern, thus forming a habit KWIM?  Go by his cues...if he seems tired sooner than put him down for a nap....he made need smaller amounts of sleep (especially if his nose is congested) but in more frequent amounts....i wouldnt worry about his routine too much if he's ill but try to keep some structure in or that might make him more unsettled....IYKWIM
