XP: decreased sleep

ShandaB

My LO used to take naps that lasted an hour to an hour and a half but for the last week I can't only get him to sleep for about 30 minutes at a time which I think is severly effecting his nighttime sleep. At night his waking 2-3 times when he used to only wake once, feed and go back to sleep.

I go back to work on Tuesday and I'm not sure how I'm going to function with this sleep regression.

Can anyone offer any advice as to what's going on? Does anyone have any suggestions to get him back on his regular routine?

I wish I had advice, but my LO has been taking 30 minute naps since he was 2 months old. The only thing I'd watch for...since he's taking shorter naps, is he taking more naps, or the same amount? Like, rather than 3 longer naps, my LO needs anywhere from 4-6 shorter naps. That way, he's still getting the same amount of sleep, but it's just spread out.

I'm sorry, I don't have any suggestions but want you to know that we are in the same boat!
