Worst night ever and I have no idea where to go with this today. Charlie woke at 4.15 called me in about three times between then and 4.50. It went a little quite after that but at 5.25 he got up and switched light on. The thing is I really don't think he got any sleep between then and his earlier waking. I tried to get him to go back to bed but he just says he doesn't want to
Ok just got back out his room he was crying by door clearly exhausted, so I've just done the one thing I never wanted to do, I got him to lay down and I stayed in his room I rubbed his back a bit and although I left while he was still awake, my boy will now expect that and kick off when it doesn't happen again. I'm not even sure he will sleep now but I had to do something, a 4.15 WU after a 7.15 BT on a nursery day would just finish him I wouldn't know how to get him back as the most he could nap would be 1hr 10 and it would be till nearly 1 which would be almost 9hrs A time.
I feel like a horrible mum not wanting to soothe my boy when he can't sleep, but since birth he has been an awful sleeper and I feel like I have been constantly sleep training without much success, once AP is in play it can take months to get him out of it.
Well he just got up again so it hadn't worked. Its now 6am I've tried once more but his sun will be up soon (I set it earlier, typical) once he sees that there will be no getting him back to sleep. He is just lying awake in his room.
What should I do today? An EBT will still result in EW, I cannot do a BT earlier than 5.30 so whatever happens his day will be over 13hrs. I guess get nursery to give him 1hr nap then try 5.30/6pm BT? I really don't know how it got this bad we have had 6 no nap days in a row and never had him wake this early. But he is clearly tired I don't see this as UT
