ds (20mo) is an early waker. this morning was 5:25. yesterday 5:40. they're typical days.
he goes to bed between 7pm and 7:30. we've tried making that earlier/later to no avail.
once he's awake, he's awake. if we go in and sshh him he might make another 10 mins before crying but that's it. this is what we do until 6am when we go and get him up.
we've also been trying to limit his daytime nap (if left to his own devices he'll happily sleep for over 2 hours) - for the last 10 days or so we've been waking him after an hour or so - max an hour and a half.
thought this was working, as for the first week he made it to 6am at least. one day to 7:10!!!
but for some reason we're back to square one. this is the third day he's been up well before 6.
does anyone have any ideas? please?
or are some children just early wakers?
