DS has been going to sleep really late at around 9pm for about a week now when he used to be dead to the world by 7.30 or 8pm. He is just chatting and phaffing about in his cot.
His lunch time naps vary from 45 mins to 1.5 hours after which I usually wake him.
He wakes up in the morning at around 7 or 7.30am which doesn't change even if he doesn't go to sleep until 9pm. No lie in there!
Could it be time to drop the nap? He loves his lunchtime kip but probably would keep going all day if I didn't put him in his cot or the buggy.
It seems a bit early to drop his nap but I'm baffled as to why he can't seem to settle at night. Perhaps his little brain is busy as he is developing very quickly at the moment with new words and skills and seems very excited about life.
Any thoughts?
