I love you Melinda.. Wanna come and live with us???

Sorry I missed the WRT... sleeped deprived brain didn't pick up on that one!!! LOL

Yeah, I'm pretty in touch with the sleep cycle thing so was expecting his call anyway. I snuck into his room to see how he went and was happy to see him dealing with it all on his own. Usually overnight he's not that good though

OK, will try to add the bath and see how we go with that. It might be something he associates with the 'big sleep' routine. Only problem is DD has skating lessons on Wednesdays that finish at 6pm so we're not home until 6.15pm at the earliest. He doesn't get a nap that day either or gets one as soon as we're home and then his routine is all later. It's very hard to give him the time he needs exclusively and still spend time with DH, DD and still get to eat dinner myself! Swimming on Tuesdays doesn't finish until 5.30pm, home about 5.45pm at the earliest so two days out of seven will be @rse about, but I'm sure we can deal with it!

Music... I've been thinking about that one too. Thought I might put a radio or a clock radio CD player in his room. Will look into that one!

Comfort toy... Hadn't thought about it. He's not really into it from what I observe, but who's to say he wouldn't appreciate it. Will have to find something appropriate in his toy box as I think the bear I bought him from PPatch yesterday with it's cute little matching clothes might be a bit big for bed!

Brekkie? I have no idea whether he needs it or not. I offer him boob when he wakes between 7/7.30, and he's not interested. I try some days around 8/815ish and he's still not interested but when he goes down about 9am he's got a strong almighty suck on him!!!

Oh and the late cat nap, ready for bed about 7.30/8pm question... he's showing tired signs - yawning and eye rubbing - so I see him as ready. :-k
