It could be from the trip or it could be an oncoming illness. Does he have any teeth cutting?

Both of them have a cold, we are in survival mode over here. Ergo all the way and dummy and a huge number of wakings at nighg and only short naps.

Get well vibes~~~ Do you have a swing or a bouncy chair he could sleep in? I find that helps with my LOs when they are sick - being more upright helps them breathe better. If they are in the crib, I roll a towel or two and place it under the mattress to elevate it a bit.

We are at my parents house until end of december, no bouncers here, he is not too bad i. The night, im hoping he is better in a couple of days or at least one of them is, otherwise they just keep waking each other in the night (we all sleep in the same room at the mo)
I wouldnt even be able to tell u what his routine is at the moment, will try and get back on track

Sometimes the routine just needs to go out the window when there's illness. The good news is that often a big disruption like that can help if things have been tough before - it's like a reset button.

Yes, babies often start having longer naps around 5-6 months.

10.40nap-12.25
3.10nap-5
7.50bt

This was today, its crazy i know, but this is te only way he sleeps even in his ergo without needing to resettle. It took him a while to settle for BT, ill see how tonight goes, he has started waling lots in the night, and im not certain its only because of the cold.

That looks like a pretty good day. Hopefully the nights will sort themselves out soon.
