Hi!
My LO has suddenly decided he wants to wake up at 5am to 530am each morning, he lies there babbling to 6am which is when I get him up. Ive tried feeding him, resettling him but nothing works.
Its totally out of the blue for the last few weeks, hes not teething but has learnt to crawl, he gets lots of practice in the daytime.
Our schedule used to be
630am wake
9am bedtime
1015am wake
130 bedtime
245 wake
630pm bedtime
Ive tried to follow the same awake times however he naps the same duration and it means his wake window from last nap to bedtime is long. I have tried a 15 minute power nap but that doesnt work. When he does sleep for 1.5 hrs each nap and his schedule is on track he still wakes at 5am.his environment hasnt changed, rooms still pitch black, white noise on same volume and same place. Same sleeping outfit etc. Same feeds in day
I cant seem to function before 6am and its really knocked me and im tired sooo much and not sure how I will manage work.
Would anyone suggest if little one wakes at 530am I go to 9am so 3. 5 hrs wake time opposed to the usual 2.5 hrs he used to have? Im worried this will result in overtiredness and that will then have an impact! X
