Hi this is my first posting, looking for any positive advice!
I have a 9 month old son, who had severe reflux from birth, he's been rocked to sleep from a young age due to having to be kept upright after feeds and falling asleep on us - rod for my own back I know, but what else could I do at the time?!
Anyway, recently he's been so difficult to settle for his daytime naps and is only sleeping about 30 mins in a day, he just will not settle. I'm trying to take cues from him to ensure he's not overtired but I'm obviously missing them, and we both become frustrated. He settles for bedtime no problem in the same way he usually does (being rocked after his bottle, usually falls asleep while having his bottle!). He is usually up once a night for either a cuddle or a feed, but that's been his norm for a while, he sleeps through very occasionally!
He's recently had a bit of a cold, off his food and has been teething so is a bit out of sorts and probably not helping his lack of naps!
Does anyone have any advice on why he's not napping, is it a developmental/age thing? Or a regression/nap transition?
Thanks in advance, please no negative remarks!
