Falling asleep just before bedtime....

[FrayedKnot]

About 3 weeks ago DS (3.2) fell asleep at about 5.45 and I couldn't wake him, so eventually plonked him into bed with no tea and he slept through 'til about 6.30am the next morning.

After this he seemed to fall into a pattern of waking early - any time from about 5.45 onwards, and had just settled back into his normal 7-7.30ish over the last few days.

Today he's done it again only fallen asleep at 5pm today

No doubt he will be up at 5 or something ridiculous but is this going to spark another fortnight of early wakings

Should I have woekn him? I tried for about 10 mins and he did come to but just nodded back off when i went to dish up supper

I would persevere wth waking him if poss. Could you not make sure he is active at that time rather than sitting? Maybe get him involved in something you are doing if it is a busy time? You could adjust his bedtime by increments..hth
