awake again - 10:11 AM
(filed under 'baby')

smiley woke up again last night in the early hours similar to the other night & this time he went back to sleep relatively quickly & i didn't have to get up out of bed, but he still stirred in the night a lot. heaps more than usual. i'm pretty sure know i why though, because it's the same set of circumstances as the previous night & both of those nights are the reason why i'm so tired & grumpy today.

when he went for his afternoon nap, it was really quite late, we're talking around 6pm. normally he might be waking up from his nap at that time. the last two evenings that he's done this, he's slept all the way through instead of waking up an hour or two later.

i don't mind that he sleeps through, because it gives me some much-needed hands-free time, but i suspect that he's awake during the night because he's having too much sleep.

usually when he wakes from any nap he likes to have a breastfeed & if he's not napped for long enough, then i try to lie quietly with him & let him go back to sleep, but if he's going to make a habit of this waking up in the night thing, i think i might bring him out of the bedroom after he's had his usual amount of sleep & he can stay awake for an hour or two until a more usual bed time. i hope that he might then stay properly asleep during the night.
