So DS is 55 weeks old and his sleep has gone to pot after a nasty cold and some teething, he also appears to be trying to drop his second nap so we're basically all over the place. He used to feed two or three times in the day and once at night (BF) and fall straight asleep, but last night he was up writhing around over his cot and then our bed for 50 minutes, between 3am and 4ish - some of my favourite hours for sleep.
So I asked my HV this morning about the 13 month sleep regression, and she looked at me blankly and said: "what, like past lives or something?"
Please, please can you lovely MNetters offer me something a little more constructive. Is he too young to be dropping a nap? He is the absolute king of the paddy right now, so he might be. What time should his single nap be? Is he hungry, how many times a day are extended BFers feeding their little ones? Could it still be the lingering effects of his cold? Argh... help but please I really don't want to hear he was Nero in a past life.
