DS1 is nearly 3 and generally still naps at lunchtime - I usually wake him after 1.5 hours but he would happily go for 2 hours or longer if I let him.
However his sleep has always been patchy and it's getting worse - he used to do 8-6 but he will now often refuse to go to bed before 9pm.
He is very occasionally starting to cut out his nap - and on those days he goes to sleep at 7ish, completely exhausted. The problem is that he then wakes around 5am ready to get up for the day.
I don't know what to do - I am starting to think that he may be ready to drop the nap, but I can't deal with 5am starts and I'm worried that 10 hours sleep, total, is not enough for him.
Any advice?
