He seems to be awake a long time from his nap to bedtime and most times is getting sleepy on his bottle again which he didn't use to
Two naps is so hard to fit in tho
He's been on the one for a while now and has stil slept thru so I don't no why he's waking now
I don't want to start giving milk again in the nihjt he hasn't had milk in night for months now but I don't no how else to settle him without waking my other kids he's babbling away in there now
Any tipsi finally thought we had cracked the sleeping



He will be 14 months on the 12th march

He won't nap long at all despite dropping to one nap he has only napped for 40 mins today and won't nap again so will be over tired again come bed time x

[Donnarobbo88]

I don't no what's wrong with him this is the third nihjt now he's suddenly starting cryingloads in the night he just cries and cries I don't no why
It didn't start til 3am ish yday tonight it's started about half  11 I so tired I don't want to give him a bottle each night he cries as I no he wil them get use to it but I don't no what to do he won't stop crying it's on off x

[Donnarobbo88]

He slept Ok last night but he's been waking mega early again last two mornings
He will not nap for long 5.15 he woke this morning 9.30 i put him for a nap 10.20 he's awake so 50 'ins he's now going to need a second nap which he won't sleep long and then he will wake early again tomoz I'm at my wits end! Why won't he nap for long x

[Martini~]

He seems to be extremely OT to me Honey and I would consider going back to one two naps for a while, with a 10min nap in the morning which will help him go through to a normal nap time around 12. Is 6-6 you desired routine? If so, 11am nap would also be fine. He does a good night once in a while but it seems to be a crash rather than a routine-wise thing.

[Donnarobbo88]

Thanks for the reply Hun I agree he's over tired he's had two naps again today I think I will just have to put up with early wake ups for the time being and let him have two naps he was having at least two hours over the two naps having dropped to one he is barely scrapping a hour x
Yeh 6-6 works for us as have two other boys who go at 6.3 & 7.30 x

[Haribo2012]

Our LO are similar ages and he goes a couple of days on 1 nap then back to 2 naps for a few days.

Or day looks a little like this
WU 6/6.30
Nap 9.30 for 20 mins
Nap 1pm for 1.5/2 hours has to be up by 2.40pm for school runs
BT 7pm

1 nap day it's nap 11.45/12 to 1.45/2pm
Bt 6.45pm x

[Donnarobbo88]

Thanks Hun well he seemed to be doing good on one nap he was sleeping right through and waking up later but then this started he will not nap long any more either today he had two naps one was 45 mins and the other was 65 mins I woke him as it was getting late

This dropping naps is hard work. X

If he would have a long nap I think would be fine but because he won't he's getting so over tired he had two naps yday and slept last night he has had two today so I will see how he goes x

[Donnarobbo88]

So he had two naps yday one 45 mins the other a hour he went to bed about 6pm
And he slept really guy thru without a peep and woke at 5.45 I'm happy with that x

[Haribo2012]

Great update, maybe just needs that extra nap for a little while longer.x

[Donnarobbo88]

So today he went for his nap at 9.45 four hours after wake up and he slept for two hours! He hasn't napped that long for ages so now he won't have another nap as there isn't enough hours left so one nap will have to do today but I'm thinking maybe like u he would be ok on one nap once in a while esp when he took such a long nap x

[Haribo2012]

Can you not get a 20 min nap in about 3 ish? It's a long time from midday to BT x

[Donnarobbo88]

Ino it's such a long time but he just won't nap that soon asftee waking for such a long nap and any later and he wouldn't go to bed he went to be slightly earlier x

[Haribo2012]

You might have to push that first nap a bit then?

[Donnarobbo88]

So it's 2am and he's crying coincidence or the fact he only had one nap yday
Been on off moaning for the last 20 mins
