Hi All...
wonder if anyone can offer some advice.
My DS is 17.5 months actual (14.5 months corrected).
I'm quite worried about him because he still sleeps a lot. He's constantly got black rings under his eyes and is often tired after being up for just 2 hours.
He has 12 hours a night, and then a 2-3 hour nap in the afternoon. But it never seems quite enough. But after a 3 hour nap in the middle of the day if I put him down for a nap again at 3/4pm he's not ready for bed at 6/7pm again.
Last night he slept for 15 hours and still had a 1.5 hr nap. He was exhausted again 2 hours later and zonked out for a 6:30 bed time.
I'm worried there might be something wrong with him (anaemic?). And that with all that sleep he's missing out on being awake and learning stuff.
Does anyone else have this problem?
We're seeing the consultant for an out-patient check-up on the 30th... should I wait or go to GP sooner?
