evening all
son is 2 in the next few days. Generally slept pretty good with the odd bad night if poorly or maybe one night a week with a wake up.
this past week/2 weeks has been a nightmare. Firstly only wants me to put him to sleep not my husband (think separation anxiety) but he is screaming! But whatever I can do that
he is waking approx 12am then every hour for a few hours. But he is screaming, when I get him nothing settles him almost like maybe a nightmare or something. Not just crying but screaming. This continues every hour then. He used to wake up and put a dummy in and go back to sleep himself. Not anymore.
his routine is 7am wake, nap 1pm-2.30pm and bed 8pm but his bedtime lately is being pushed back as he is refusing bedtime.
he definitely needs a nap so can’t drop it, do I drop it to 1 hour? Only 3 months since dropped from 2 hours down to 1.5
also read online maybe scared of the dark? His room is pretty blackout, but in a morning if he wakes early eg 6.30am he will happily sit/play in his cot in the dark?
