Lunchtime nap - 5m LB waking at 1hr

Hello
Really need some help with the lunchtime nap....every single day my 5 month old wakes at the 1 hour mark screaming! Sometimes I go in once and then come out and he resettles and will then sleep and have a good 2 hours...but most of the time he won’t resettle back and continues screaming on and off and so I go in every 5 mins for 30 secs then come out but after going in 3 or 4 times I end up giving up and getting him up.

I thought I was leaving him for too long in the morning nap as he was sleeping for 1 hr 10 mins but I have reduced it back now to 50 mins and it still seems to be happening?
Any advice as he is clearly still tired when I eventually get him up!
How do I get him to sleep longer as think he needs a full 2 hours. He self settles to sleep and has white noise in a pretty dark room...
how can I stop it happening? What should I do when he wakes?
Any help much appreciated as desperate to get this sorted!
