DS1 used to be such a good sleeper but recently his wake up time has been getting earlier and earlier and he's been getting up at around 5am to have a poo. He still wears a nappy at night (pull up not absorbent enough) and needs help to wipe and wash hands afterwards and get his pants on or nappy back on. I am so sick of this, he sits on the loo and sings and wakes everyone up. Any advice on how to prevent early morning poos? He does usually go late afternoon / bath time as well.
Ds2 is 8 months and is usually awake and crying by 4/5ish anyway which probably wakes DS1 up but between the two of them they are awake and preventing anyone else getting sleep from about 4am every single day and I am just shattered. Going back to work soon and don't know how will cope on on 4-5 hrs sleep a night. It doesn't help that I the world's lightest sleeper and wake at the sound of a cough or door handle going.
DS1 has a gro clock and is usually good at going back to his room after been to loo and waiting for sun to come up but he rarely goes back to sleep and I worry he isn't getting enough sleep. He won't nap in the day.
Any advice on his to make mornings start a bit later? 6am would be a luxury! Thanks.
