He would of course nap, if he was really tried out but in general he just doesn't want to nap. I've also read somewhere that giving them biscuits and milk may contribute to their waking up constantly as the sugar level is high in the biscuits? My boy used to watched a bit of cartoon before bed but screen time before bedtime is a bad idea. This is because... "screens can affect children’s circadian rhythms.... that... are responsible for telling us when it’s time to fall asleep and time to wake up, so anything that throws off our circadian rhythms throws off sleep, too." (from http://www.babysleepsite.com) Hope this helps. xx #PicknMixSuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18229774062983762988noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4778157758126536604.post-12779201241006635492015-07-09T20:32:37.641+01:002015-07-09T20:32:37.641+01:00Oh no, Ava went through an early wake up phase, it...Oh no, Ava went through an early wake up phase, it was hell!

Both my two gave up their naps at around 18months, much to my disappointment. Having said that, they've both always slept well at night. Swings and roundabouts!!

Hopefully it's just the hot sticky weather doing it and he'll start sleeping later for you again soon. One of mine used to wake me in the mornings with a metal car to the head at that age...nothing quite like the love of a toddler!<br />Thanks for linking up with Mummy and Monkeys and me @ www.acornishmum.com lovely!<br /><br />Stevie xx #PicknMix FridaysStevie - A Cornish Mumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11182169869144330729noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4778157758126536604.post-1878800619191436692015-07-01T17:02:52.848+01:002015-07-01T17:02:52.848+01:00aww hun we are the same this week. 5am today and 5...aww hun we are the same this week. 5am today and 5.30am yesterday.
