Anyone elses little one having a real hard time sleeping at the moment/recently??My 5 month old (5 months today) for the last few days has been battling to nap in the day. He would always nap 3 times a day with 2.5hr wake windows at tops, yet now hes lasting 3-4hrs and whining beause hes so exhausted. We have tried absolutely everything to get him to sleep and he still struggles. I really dont know whats going on😩

We had this, lasted about a week and a half.
The best thing I found for my own sanity was just to go for a walk, he ends up falling asleep in the pushchair 😅 or I’ll drive to my mums (she’s 30 mins away) so gives him time to just fall asleep and I get a coffee by the end of it.
Night time was never an issue with wake ups but he would FIGHT going to sleep all the time
I also found that he would not settle on my partner at all, luckily that ended because he would scream the house down and my partner felt awful about it because he couldn’t help and felt lost

This has been going on for us since 16 weeks and he's almost 6 month now 😂. I have no idea what helps, some days are slightly better than others, some days he really tests the limit with a nice 40 second nap 😂
