Ok so things are just getting worse
Today I really watched to see when he seemed tired and also tried W2S to see if that would make a difference (I read that it can take 2 or 3 days to make a difference).
He woke at 5.30 and at 8.45 he seemed to be tired - showing disinterest in any toys. So I took him in to his room read a short story, sang a song and put him down. He cried (seemed to be resistance rather than OT but was asleep in 5 minutes. Went in at 30 mins and stroked his cheek to make him stir and then left. He woke up at 40 mins. He was happy though and not crying. Kept him up for another 3 hours. Started to fuss so did bedtime routine and put him down, thinknhe may have been OT as he cried out at 20 mins. Went in at 30 mins and he woke up at 40 mins crying but would not resettle. ( he doesn’t seem to like my help to get him to sleep - it seems to make him worse. Anyway I ended up getting him up and we had to go for a walk in the buggy to run a few errand, he fell asleep at 3.45 and woke at 4.30. Bedtime was at 7.
After sleeping through for the last 5 nights, he woke up at 2 firstly he was just chatting to himself but after 30 mins would not resettle at all and was getting upset so he had a feed and went back to sleep he then woke at 4 and 5.30 but went back to sleep both times within 10 minutes..
I feel at a real loss. I’m not sure if I’m doing too much a time or if he needs a really long first a time
