Any advice or tips welcome. My 21 month old was previously an angel with sleep (I would just lay him down and he would fall asleep sucking his thumb, no crying or fighting naps / bedtime). We seem to have hit the 21 month sleep regression (waking for long periods in the night, early morning waking, refusing naps) but the thing I’m struggling with the most is the amount he is crying before both nap and bedtime. Every single time. How long does it last? After the regression do they tend to go back to how they were before? 😭

If he was falling asleep independently for naps/bedtime and is fighting both now—it sounds like he’s ready for a schedule change. What time are you attempting naps and bedtime?

Definitely sounds like he needs less sleep than you’re trying to give
