Early wakings already BETTER!!
« on: April 21, 2006, 11:58:18 am »
I had posted earlier about my ds waking early in the mornings, around 5.30-5.45am (driving me nuts), and I just wanted to say, that yesterday I tweaked his afternoon nap.  He usually sleeps from 1-4pm, and I woke him up gently around 3.30, and he had a small 20 minute catnap from 5 to 5.20 pm, and IMMEDIATE improvement.  Woke up this morning at 6.24am.  Furthermore, with shh/pat and his binky slept till 7.15 which is exactly where I want it.  Going to tweak the am nap too, and wake him up just 15 mins earlier, see if that helps to take it past 7.  Thanks again everyone.
Getting the hang of things, and then it all changes.  Heh!

That is GREAT! Doesn't it feel good when you feel like you both are accomplishing your goals!  If he regresses and begins waking again early, don't loose hope. It seems like it happens every once in a while.

Enjoy sleeping a bit later!!

Sounds great! I've been tweaking naps too and got DS to 6.25am today instead of 5.30am yesterday.
