Wake-to-sleep??
« on: February 06, 2010, 12:36:05 pm »
My LO has been EW for a year. He has one nap. He is 20months old.

We have tried everything but W2S. The only times in the past year that he's slept until 7am are 3 times he's woken at about 4am needing a fresh nappy. Now this makes me think that W2S will work!! I've avoided it so far for fear of making things worse, but after waking at 4am today because of poop he slept until 7am!!

Should I go for it? (OH is happy to get up at 4am to do this tomorrow!) Hehe xx

I guess not...

So exactly how much do I wake him?? Just so he wriggles/turns over etc but not actually wakes...? :| x

He was on 2 until the first week in December and has had one nap since then.

He has a bad chest infection ( a lot better today since getting penicillin) so has had 2 naps most days the last week.

Well the 4 am wake-up was only because he pooped, he went back to sleep until 7am all 3 times (including today).

OH is off (rare!) All weekend luckily so he OFFERED to do w2s!!! Lol xx
