His cold was only a minor one, lasted about a day and a half. We are still on the melatonin so the wakings are minimal. And now he's also waking earlier.. Anywhere from 5:30am
I've dropped the nap completely because it just meant a late night and a 9.5-10 hour one as well. Now we are getting about 11 hours without it. One or two wakings. So in overall it's better but I know he needs more sleep, I can tell he does, he's exhausted by evening. I'm trying set bedtimes of 6:30pm. He's waking at 5:30am so without a nap that's a very lon day for him.
He's always been slightly HSN, if he missed his usual 45 min nap he would do up to 15 hour nights and right up until recently, just before all this horrible sleep business kicked up.
I'm trying to see it in a good light, that at least we aren't having nights like before but still like I said I know it's not enough for him...
We still have the occasional 1.5-2 hour wake up and then he's still up early, so he did that the other night, only had 10 hours night sleep. I figured he would make it up the next night like he usually used to do but no he didn't. Surely he's exhausted? But I can't seem to make him sleep more. And I'm worried that once I stop the melatonin he wil just revert? I'm trying to get his body to sync with routine times as I feel that will work for him
