Hi there. Did BW with my daughter and it worked great. Doing it again for my son who will be 6 months in a week. Was doing great but about a week and a half ago naps started to get short (30-45 mins) out of nowhere. I've been pushing A time and I think I've found a decent time at 2.15 A time. The thing that is so uncharacteristic is all his crying and fussing before falling asleep. He used to go to sleep no problem, now it's lots of crying, sometimes up to an hour. The crying is seeming to be getting slightly better since tweaking A time but still not great.
NOTE:he has learned to roll front to back, starting to sit up, weaned from the swaddle and I think he's teething all in the past number of weeks. Needless to say his little body is super busy.
What I'd love to hear is if this is a normal phase that will hopefully go back to normal in awhile, or is this is a timing issue. We are on a 3.5 EASY as I can't get a 4 hour since his naps are so short.
It's usually something like:
E-6
A
S-8:15
E9:30
A
S-11:15
E-1
A
S-2:15
E-4:30
A
S-catnap in backpack
A
E-6:30
S-7 bedtime
This is very rough as routine is not working smoothly right now.
