My Lo is fab at going to bed at night but daytime naps are a nightmare.
He is 16 weeks old and from day one has refused to sleep longer than 30 - 45 mins during the day. I know that this is a babies sleep cycle moving between light and deeper sleep. He is distraught and so obviously still tired when waking.
I have a routine to put him dowm to that I follow at each nap hes is fine with this and goes to sleep with min fuss an occasional bellow for 5 - 10 mins but no hysterics. He just wakes up after 30 - 40 mins have gone into his room and shushed patted or stoked etc and occasionally he will go back to sleep for another 30 mins.
What can I do to help him stay asleep for his daytime naps so that his sleep is refreshing for him what should I do when he does wake and is screaming hysterically?
TIA
