Boy, my previous post was pretty jumbled! My mind is so jumbled with all this worry. I meant that I want Kindergarten to go smoothly for him and unfortunately it's from 12 - 2:40... pretty tough time of the day for him. Started napping him again the last few days and he looks more rested,
behavior getting better but he's still getting up at night with sobbing. Thought maybe napping again would make this night wakening stuff disappear! But, isn't 4 3/4 yrs old a little old to be napping again????? Shouldn't 10-11 hours in the bed at night be enough sleep for a boy his age??? He is usually in bed around
7:30-8:00 and is up between 6 - 7 a.m. He's also a very active little guy and have noticed more fatigue now that the weather is nice out.

I have an 18 yr old girl who never had this many problems with sleep/behavior so all this is new to me. My 17 month old sleeps pretty good so far.
But, this little guy NEVER slept from day one!

Thanks for your suggestions and sorry to be babbling on, but I tend to do that when I'm worried SICK!
