Creatioms, you have helped me SO much you incredible lady. Thank you. I thought I'd touch base with you again only because we've had this random extension of nights after built up OT and sickness - similar to your LO. I'm not quite sure what to make of it.
I have been capping and maintaining our 7pm bedtime as opposed to letting him sleep. It is causing a few issues in that by 12.30/1pm he's started losing his cool VERY easily, super temperamental and has me walking on egg shells (similar to after waking from nap). Having said that, he's getting far more sleep than he used to - up to 12hrs+ in 24 hours. He's even looking at Mr Sun in the morning and laying there dozing rather than getting OOB which is so weird for us! I've kept an EAS log to show you...
