5 month DS has always been a bit of a night owl. In the early days I let him nap in sleepyhead in lounge with us before taking him through to bedside cot in our bedroom. From about 10 weeks I've been trying to bring his bedtime forward. We do bath, boob, bed at 7/8pm and he goes straight off. I have the room quiet and dark. I either lie reading or watch tv in lounge.
Come 9pm his eyes bolt open and for the next two hours he just talks and plays/kicks non stop. Wide awake. I don't talk to him but I do try to soothe him. I do another feed about 11pm and that's when he goes off for the night. Wakes 2pm, then 5/6am, then 8am and snoozes a bit more in the mornings.
Am I doing something very wrong...? Why is he waking like this - is he just a night owl or can I bring his clock forward? He genuinely seems tired at 7pm but then it just turns into a nap. 🤔
