That's a tricky one...I'd almost be tempted to let him have 2hrs (unless he wakes before) as if he has been OT then it sounds like he's catching up?

6.25am wake up this morning: ). After the 2 hr nap yesterday?! 

Would you continue with 2 hrs today? He was more like his old self yesterday afternoon - very content to just potter around and sing and play. Wonder if hes caught up his OT? Or maybe he needs more sleep when his brothers visiting as he so super excited and on the go all the time?  xxxx

Maybe keep things as they are for a couple more days....if you start getting BT resistance &/or earlier wake-ups then you know he is getting UT & you need to cap the nap.

Hi! thought I would give you a couple of days off Sian ; ) !!

Well we have been doing 2 hr naps and had WU's of 7 am and 6.35am. Then we got a 6am so capped the nap at 1.45 for now. 6.35am again this morning but nap disaster at nursery - 45 mins. Yuk. So he was in bed by 7.15pm tonight. Lets see what happens.

Just to update you!!

Thanks for the update.....

I probably would have done an earlier BT after the 45min nap but FX he has a good night!

I'm not going to be on here for a couple of days now so if I don't reply to your posts I'm not ignoring you!  :)

Hi guys!

Well after the too late bedtime on Tues we had no NW and he woke at 6.35am : ) Had the longest nap he's ever had at nursery -1hr 45- and was in bed at 7.35pm. woke at 6.30 this morning again : ) and no NWings. 2hr nap today - wanted it shorter but life got in the way - had family over, I had physio etc. Bed at 7.30pm and quiet straight away. DH away at the moment and things are going well apart from tantrums but they are quite short lived.

Re naps and bedtime I seem to be deciding on a day by day basis what to do at the moment depending on how he  seems. I'm fine with that and just thankful not to be getting up at 5.30am!

Your help and support has been amazing xxxxx
