He never naps for longer than 30mins! Why is this?
I always notice the tired stage and try to get him off straight away - the problem is, he will not put himself to sleep - he has to be rocked with his soother and then put on his belly with pat and rub on his back.
If i were to just leave him, he gets ratty from tiredness but wont go off to sleep.
I havent tried the PU/PD yet because he has chronic wind and is only 12 weeks old. He is just getting over colic and now seems to have a bit of reflux, so i feel bad not cuddling him off to sleep because sometimes he is in pain and needs reassurance.
The only was he will sleep longer is in the car, or if he is out in the buggy. Then he will only wake for a bum change or for feeding, but i cant go out everytime he needs a nap - or is that what i have to do?
It is so tiresome because i never have time to get washed and dressed properly, do the bottles or tidy up.
Any tips???!?
