My DS has never been a good daytime napper, always infrequent and short!
He had got better over last couple of months, sleeping up to two hours on occasion .
However, recently, after his lunchtime nap, he is waking after 1 hour, very distressed, screaming and doing that whole out of breath / can't catch breath sobbing. It takes a lot to calm him down and he is basically very overtired. It's almost as though he has had a bad dream and can't quite wake up, IYKWIM.
Any ideas as to how I can help my little man to sleep a bit longer and avoid these distressing episodes?
Thank you!
PS I am normally happy to leave him crying for a while, as he does self settle, but this is break your heart distressed crying.
