Yeah, it sounds like he's having a lovely long sleep over night which is great, so that may well be the reason why he doesn't want to sleep much during the day. I certainly wasn't thinking "what are you worried about then" because I know it's damn hard when you're not getting any break during the day and the little blighters are a bit grumpy from being tired!!

It's like Kelly said - sometimes you can try everything under the sun and still not get them to sleep any longer than that 40 minutes!! Also like Kelly said, even though it's hard when there's not much of a break for you, it is probably bound to pass and before you know it, he'll be having a lovely sleep for you during the day!!!

I think the others are right too, in that there is no 'right' thing that YOUR baby should be doing. Every baby is an individual and has unique needs and requirements!!! Trust what you're doing so far......and as hard as it can be some days (believe me, I know!) things do get better!

Teething and learning new things, i.e. reaching developmental milestones can definitely cause a few sleep disturbances too, so I'm sure that things will change in time like Kelly said!

Good luck Bel.......you're doing great! Well done.
