Not majorly but DS has been waking up at 5:45 on the dot every morning. He will not go back to sleep and he is hungry. He eats so much food in the day, has breastfeeds and has a 7oz bottle before going to bed, sometimes he leaves about 10 mls. He used to wake up between 6:30-6:50 and we could cope with that. He has always gone to sleep at about 7pm. Should we be changing his bedtime to a bit later? Also I've read that at 9 months babies drop their morning nap. I cannot see my DS doing this in the near future as getting up at 5:45 means by 8am he is ready for a nap again. Even if he was waking at 7am he still needs a nap about 2-3 hours later. Sometimes he won't have a late afternoon nap as he will wake from after lunch nap at about 3:30pm and sometimes we put him to bed a bit earlier. How can we get him to sleep longer or later. I am getting worried about the clocks going back and then it will be 4:45!!!
