My 6 and a half month old was feeding virtually every hour last nigot past midnight. He's never a good sleeper anyhow but I put last night down to teething and tummy ache (we're weaning him but he's still bf).
So normally he only naps in the day for between 10-40mins maybe 2 or 3 times. Usually wakes as soon as I move him from my lap.
But today. ..He was awake from 8.45-11.30 ish then slept til nearly 2pm (???This is longer than he does at night!?), then slept again at 3pm for about 30 mins and fell asleep again at 4.30(it's now 5 and he's still asleep ).
Weird. And also a bit worrying as he hasn't be since about 1pm....which again isn't normal.
should I wake him up?

Normally give him boob then dinner at 6pm.
