Hello. My DS is 28 months old and regularly wakes at 5am and has a poo. He then calls out to tell us and after being changed is wide awake and won't go back to sleep so we are up the same time. This has gone on for the last 6 months or so now. The time varies from 5am to 6.30am but is more often around 5.30am. Has anyone else experienced this and does it change? Is there a way we could change his poo time somehow? It sounds selfish I know but if there was a natural way of changing his cycle time then we wouldn't all be so tired. It's particularly hard at the moment because my wife is 10 weeks pregnant and not sleeping well as a result.
Any help greatly appreciated!
