Does my baby just not like sleep?
I am struggling. 7.5 month old whose sleep just continues to get worse and worse no matter what I try to do. We have tried sticking to wake windows as much as possible (2.25/2.5/2.5/2.75-3) but he will have a better night then yo-yo straight back to 6-8 wakes a night. What’s most frustrating is the multiple transfer fails in the middle of the night - is my baby chronically undertired or overtired? Do I need to stretch wake windows (even though that often backfires)? Today I tried the Dana method for set nap times and it was okay until we were running errands when he needed the cat nap and he would not fall asleep in the car.
Yes he is fed to sleep at night, but he’s capable of linking cycles independently so I think I have a schedule problem. Most naps you see that are longer than 35 minutes have been rescued especially the second nap - I can never seem to get that one right. Any advice welcome! 🤗
