Ds 17 months has been early waking for about 9 months. It's usually between 5.30-6 and I've just got on and accepted it. But his routine has recently changed - nap and bedtime pushed a bit later - and now he wakes between 4.30-5. It's hideous and I can't bear it, it's just too early. I have no idea why it's happening, does anyone have any advice? Am including old and new schedule below in case I'm missing something...
Old routine - wakes 5.30, naps 11-12.30, bed 6.30
New routine - wakes 5, naps 12-2, bed 7
The nap has become later just because as he's become older that's when he's getting tired now.
Ds has a blackout blind AND curtains in his room, he fully goes to sleep and settles by himself, there are no noises I'm aware of that would be waking him at this time.
I don't what to do! I was hoping the later nap and bedtime might encourage later waking, not earlier!
