expert help needed for spirited 11.5 month old going through 2:1

[*Becky*]

yes he did 11 hours and woke at 6am. I did hear him twice in the night at around 11pm and 4.30pam but he went back to sleep.

Pleased about the 6am start, just hope the NW's were not OT signs.

Going to go for 45 mins this am again after 3.5/3.75 depending on his cues and then I may  try for 3.75 A time and see how we get on. I guess I am looking at a 6.30/6.45 bedtime tonight unless we get amazing naps.

Morning!

That's great about the 6am wakeup!! Better than us - we had a 5.45  .

We slept in Ben's room over the weeked as Dh's parents were staying with us (they had our room), and I was horrified at the amount that Ben was awake in the night  ...shuffling, bumping his head on his cot bars, murmuring etc!!  So next time I think he's had an 11 hour night I won't be so certain    ! 

I would think that if Henry took a 45 minute nap and then an 1hr15, that it would be enough for him to have a 6.45/7 bedtime - if that middle A time gets stretched out a bit?  We're going to be doing the same today I think.  Hope it's a good day

yes that would be great. Unlikely he will do 1.15 though. We got a 1.10 once last week but usually get 1 hour x

this is how today looked.
Awake 6am
Sleep - 9.40 - somewhere between 10.20/25am - he woke before I could wake him.

Sleep - 2.10-3.10pm - the usual 1 hour nap but an easier go down.

Bed 6.30pm


I just know that we are heading for a 5.30 wake or maybe even earlier but if he will not nap longer than an hour and wakes at 6am he cannot make it to 7pm.

so frustrating

Hi ladies, this thread has been going on for quite some time, can i please suggest that you start a new one as obviously the LO involved is a different age now and you may benefit from a fresh set of eyes, its hard to follow a long thread otherwise.

I will lock this one so you can start a new one
