6pm bedtime tonight since he woke at 3 from his nap and would not catnap after. Hoping I don't get an extremely early wakeup.  I forgot how hard this transition can be.

Hi again!

So my little guy is now 6 months!  Doing better but he's been stuck with early 6-620 wakings again.  Mostly 615. :( no matter when he goes to bed.  Actually the later he goes (latest 730) the earlier it gets.  No earlier then 5:50.
Here's an idea of where we tend to be.

Awake 620 (stays in crib till 7)
Eat 720
Sleep 9 (he seems to count time in crib as half time)
Awake 1030.  Sometimes 11 (will adjust time for sec nap if this happens, seems to happen when we get a later wakeup in the morning)
Eat 1110
Sleep 1
Awake 2:30/2:40
Eat 3:00
Sleep 4:50/5
Awake 5:20/5:25
Eat 6:30
Bed 7:15/7:25

When the second nap goes later till about 3 I try to keep him up for a 6 bedtime rather than taking a catnap.  He still wakes around same time.

My biggest problem is the day seems way to long and starts to early.  Any thoughts?  He will sometimes fall back to sleep.

I think he is just going through the 3-2 nap transition. In the next few weeks his A times will get closer to 3hrs and he will be able to drop that last nap and have an earlier BT. Then hopefully the nights will extend.

Some LOs do just like an early start though and if that is just how his body clock is set there may be very little you can do about it unfortunately.
