Hi there! I am back to ask for some much needed advice on my EW 3year old. Most of his life, he has been an amazing sleeper. A few months ago, we moved from West coast to East coast, and dealt with a 3 hour time change. One week later, the clocks got turned back, and made for a 4 hour total time difference
. This is now 8 months later, and I feel like we are still suffering from that. We initally had NW, that went away. But the only problem now is EW, regardless of bedtime. For instance, last night he was in bed at 745, and didn't fall alseep until 9. But he was up at 630. Definately not enough sleep for him. So here is our typical day.
Awake between 6/630 Grumpy and Tired. Rarely I can get him to go back to sleep, when I do he sleeps until 730. Feels MUCH better after that.
Nap 1 for an hour, sometimes 1hr 15min
Bath 630 (We have a lengthy bedtime routine.)
Bed 715 (Doesn't fall asleep until after 8pm... sometimes much later.)
I have a 5 month old, as well who is being disturbed by his early waking. I know that it could be much worse of a time, but I know that he isn't getting enough sleep. An extra half hour would make all the difference to him.
I appreciate your time for reading this. I look forward to hearing what you all might have to say.
Thanks
