I'm not sure what to do about naps anymore with DS. He's 2.5 yo and we have a 6 week old too. Ever since we found out about DS #2, DS#1 has been really fighting naps. He typically would go a week without napping and then be back on track. I don't know exactly what sets it off, but it's happened a few times before DS #2. Now, he wont nap at all. I would think that he's dropping his nap and wouldn't really mind it (well, I wouldn't be happy, but what can you do), but he can't even make it until 5pm... he has meltdowns all night long. He typically goes to bed at 7 and is up around 7, but when he doesn't nap, we're lucky if we can make it until 6:30. He's a wreck. He has no toys or books in his room anymore, but he still messes with his dresser/sound machine/etc. I thought about pushing his bedtime back to see if he is just sleeping too much at night, but I didn't want to mess with his schedule with the new baby and then I was in the hospital for about a week and didn't want to make another change for him. Maybe it's time?
Any suggestions welcome! TIA!
