My 16 mo is a good sleeper day and night . We been on 1 nap for 1 Months and it’s going ok.

He’s fallen ill and this is week 2 of temperature....(seen doctors it’s all viral) he went from sleeping a lot and needing 2 naps last week...to this week going mad! He’s refusing all naps but so so tired. He stands in cot shouting “mum mum”. I go in st away pat him to sleep and then he sleeps for 15 mins?! He then passes out watching tv. I’ve driven him for some of his naps this week and he’s often woken up there too (I hope he would do a nice chunky nap to try break the overtired cycle). I’ve held him, rocked, fed, patted but he won’t sleep more than 15 mins.
He’s now doing the same at night :/ and I’m
Tired!

Anyone else’s baby do this when poorly and then go back to being a good sleeper? I don’t really know wot to do! I spent 3 hours getting him back to bed yest. He’s obviously OT but I can’t get him to nap! If he was well I wouldn’t be averse to leaving him 5 mins to settle on his own but as he’s unwell I go straight in.
