As you know I've had problems with Cam's day time sleeps. He will have a 40-45 minute nap in the morning (if I am very lucky it's 1 hour) then a 30-40 minute nap at around 2 pm and lately a wee nap at around 5 pm. He is in bed by 7-7.30 and wakes around 7 am.
Usually it's like this :
Bedtime 7 - 7.30 pm (sometimes he sleeps right through, most nights I'm up once or twice to put the dummy back in)
Up at 7 am
Back to bed at 8 am, up at 9 am
Sleep at 11 am till 11.45 am
Sleep at 2 pm till 2.30-2.40 pm
Lately a nap at 5 pm till 5.30 pm
He never used to have the 5 pm nap and he was sometimes wanting to go to bed at 6 pm. That was way too early for us so we give him a nap now at 5 pm but he is still tired at 7 pm.
The thing is, the MCHN told me that if he only sleep for 30 minutes or less he won't get his deep sleep. So a few times when he only managed a 30 minute sleep, he would still be tired half an hour later........grumpy and rubbing his eyes, but not wanting to go to sleep.
