Help re: getting 8mo to self soothe vs falling asleep in nursery run

[titferbrains]

Am trying to do pu/pd wihh ds. He normally falls asleep on school run and if he doesn't it's a nightmare to get him down like now. I could feed him to sleep but it is taking longer and longer. Any tHoughts on getting him to self soothe?

It is a total pain when he falls asleep at 12 midday as he is supposed to have his lunch around then, and he seems to wake in a grump because he is hungry after a short while. He normally has 2 naps a day, one long, one short.

Hate doing any kind of sleep training as he never cries really but I need to not be spending ages to get him to sleep.

Ah fuck got to run 2 whining crying kids I am going out to clear my head before I lose it.

Can you give him his lunch earlier? Or a snack before he is likely to sleep.
