Last night was terrible. He had a bad nap day and was obviously overtired. We had to go out for brunch and it just messed up the whole day. He had a morning nap of 30 minutes and that was 2 + hours after waking up. Then we went downtown where we was awake for 2 + hours again and fell asleep for about 10 minutes on the way home but woke up when I pulled him out of the car. I tried to feed him and put him back down, but he was wide awake. I tried in again in an hour and he slept 45 min and I tried to get more out of him and I got 20 more minutes (but not consecutively). After that he did an afternoon nap from about 4:15 to 4:30pm and then he slept another 15 minutes and was waaaaayyy overtired. I put him down at 6:10ish and he woke 20 minutes later and needed me to shh/pat him back to sleep. Then he woke 2 hours later and then 2 hours after that - and then he cried out every HOUR. At midnight, I fed him and gave him gripe water, but he still cried out every hour. He didn't need me to help him, but still. I fed him again just now (5:30am) and I'm hoping he falls back asleep.
I feel I'm never going to be able to fix his daytime naps, so we will always have bad nights. You know?
