too tired

[lucyp]

Some who read this are going to think - you are blessed - be quiet...but anyway - DS has always been a pretty good sleeper - day and night- however of late - he has a long sleep in the morn 1-1.5 hours (afeter waking at 6-6:30ish - back in bed at 8ish))

Then by the time 12 rolls around - he is sooo tired again - that I just have to put him back to sleep and then will sleep again for 2 hoursish....he hits the cot and is out like a light.

I suppose rereading this - it does not sound like a prob - but he is just sooo tired in the middle of the day of late - anyone else expereinceing this - or have an idea of what the devil is going on??

Sounds like normal baby behaviour which doesn't have to have a reason, just go with the flow. How lovely that you're following his cues and supporting him appropriately! Excellent :) My son had 2 day sleeps until he was about 11 months old.

My ds is 14 months and usually wakes at about 6 - 6:30am then goes back to sleep anywhere from 8:30 - 10:30am for 1 - 1.5hours. He then has an afternoon sleep for about an 1 - 1.5hours depending on what time he had his morning sleep. Your bub sounds completely normal to me.

My guy has also been more tired with the warm weather (it's like 40 degrees today!!) and his sleeps also vary depending on how he slept the night before.

I have found just going with the flow makes us all happier people!!
