he goes to bed about 7pm without too much fuss, stopped his naps about 6 months ago. if we are in car around lunchtime he will sleep and sometimes when he is over tired i go for a drive as he wont go in his bed. he gets up between 5.30-6.30 averaging 11 hours a night. if he naps and i let him he'; sleep for nearly 2 hours which makes himn wake up really early next day. if i wake him up he is in such an awful mood for over an hour. i dont know what to do as he is tired and tells me so. i do try 'quiet time' but not that effective.

any ideas??

so, is the problem that he is tired in the afternoon?

when mine have dropped naps they've been a bit like this because it does take time for them to settle down really.
we used to just do a nap every 2-3 days which helped a bit.
although obv you do have the early waking to deal with .

it'll get better thogh
