How about NOT.
Our sleep pattern has been a bit "off" lately. A few weeks ago nap time became very tricky. I'd been having Jonah nap in the morning because we leave the house everyday around 3. He'd nap from 11:30 or 12 until somewhere around 2. It worked out great.
And then, it didn't. Naptime became a battle.
We fought the battle.
Then, bedtime became a battle.
Two battles a day? No thank-you!
So, I ignored my inner "mommy" voice telling me he was too young to give up naps. And we started keeping him up.
That has been working out fine. Bedtime is still tricky, but here's why...he falls asleep in the car around 3.
WHAT to DO??? (this is one of those "insolvable problems" we are just going to have to struggle through)
Oh, and just to throw another kink into the pattern...HERE's what he's been doing this week:
on the couch, watching a movie ("rest time")
(I think he's growing)
Meanwhile, I'll be brewing up another pot of coffee!
Happy Wednesday Afternoon!
ugh... those unsalvable problems... we have one right now... good luck with yours! Maybe a solution will just hit you one day!
ReplyDeleteJust when things are going smoothly, and you have it all figured out...those little stinkers CHANGE. :-) I bet it's just a growing/developmental change, and I bet he'll start napping/sleeping again soon. Of course, I AM the eternal optimist... :-)
