Hi everyone,

I have a 13 month old DS, who is just wonderful in everyway. He is generally a good sleeper BUT it seems like he takes a long time to get to sleep when first put down - generally between 20-30 mins. Is this normal? He's usually happy enough, just shouting, babbling...generally being very cute, but at the time to me its the furthest thing from it.

I have anxiety, and hearing him playing around and making noises and stuff gets me worked up so bad that I often end up in tears I know I shouldn't be like this, I know I should be happy that he does sleep quite well...but I just can't help it And once he is asleep I feel so angry at myself for getting upset.

So, basically, I just want to hear how long it takes other babies of the same age to fall asleep?

PS: I've tried widening/shortening the time between his sleeps, dropping one sleep....none of it seems to make any difference.
