I'm having trouble with my 7 month olds naps. He usually gets up around 6am, sometimes earlier. He has a short nap in the morning which is fine, but his lunchtime nap is all over the place.
I usually put him down in his cot, after lunch at about 12. Ocassionally, he sleeps for between an hour to an hour and a half, but mostly this nap lasts for between 20 to 30 mins. The only way I can get him to sleep longer, is to take him out for a walk in the pram. However, I have a toddler as well, so I can't always to this.
If he only has a short nap, his night time sleep seems disturbed and he usually wakes about 4/4.30 and won't go back to sleep, or he's up from between 1-3am.
If I try to get him to go back to sleep in his cot after his short 20 mins, he cries and screams so much I just give up.
Is there anything I can do about this?
