My LO is 20 months old
His schedule used to be as follows:
Wake up - 6:30-6:45 - out of crib by 7
Nap - 5.5 hours from wake up (usually for about 60 minutes - 90 minutes - he's never been a long napper - but more of a long night sleeper). He would fall asleep within 5-10 minutes.
Bedtime - 5.5 hours from Nap wake up
We went to Florida for 3 days and his sleep went wonky - due to him not being home. He had short naps, early wakeups (5:45) and just general overtiredness as expected from being on vacation. When he would wake up at 5:45, I still kept to his routine and didn't take him out of his crib until 6:45 so as not to perpetuate the early wake up.
When we came home, the 5:45 early wakeups have continued! It's been a week since we've came back. This causes his nap to be earlier (I still push it to about 11:45), and bedtime to be earlier (he sleeps as early as 6:15 with the early wake up and 1 hour naps). His total sleep has also gone down from 13 hours to about 12 hours. He will only sleep an hour for his nap and even though I give an early bedtime, he won't make it up at night.
Anything I can do to fix this?? Do I have the appropriate schedule? I didn't think it would take this long to sort out what happened to his sleep after vacation. This 5:45 wake-up is killing me!!!
