Hello!
i have been trying to establish a routine for a while now for my little boy and we have so far been able to get him into his next to me for his morning, lunch and afternoon nap and for the most part can self settle in these naps and always goes down awake in the cot.
we have a routine for bedtime - bath, bottle, book and down in the cot awake to self settle…. 42 mins like clockwork, one sleep cycle and we have screaming until around 9ish and then it’s his feed again at 10.30/11pm. When he cries during his lunchtime nap I will allow a couple of minutes and then use the dummy.
He can sleep thru the night from 11pm until 7am usually with no problem, has the usual stirs at 5am but a dummy sorts that.
our day time naps can be anything from 3-4hours a day.
can anyone provide any advice on what I’m doing wrong here or how I can get my baby to settle for the evening?
thank you! X
