Why is my 10 month old son waking up at night and wanting to stay up?

Question

My son goes to bed pretty late usually about 11-12, I cant seem to get him to go any earlier. He wakes up about 12 the next day. It hasn't been a problem until now. He has gotten to where he will go to bed about 12 and wake up around 2 and we end up staying up until 4 sometimes later. Then he'll want to sleep till 1 or 2 in the after noon. Also during the day he only takes one nap. Any suggestions?

Answer 1

change the position of his sleep or the place

Answer 2

My son did this too. The advice my pediatrician gave me is this.  A 10mos old baby has no nutritional reason to wake provided he was fed b4 bed.  Let him cry back to sleep and don't go to him at all.  It'll take about a week and youll be on the right track.  If its 6am then by all means answer to him 2am in not playtime!!!

Answer 3

He's probably sick you should take him to the doctor. (By the way, I hope I didn't scare you)

Answer 4

haha my son does this. The doctor told me that he's mimicking my sleep pattern. Meaning he'll sleep when I sleep so he doesn't sleep until 10-12pm lol. I'm going to start g to bed t 8 a see if he follows. Doc said he should. Maybe it will work for you too. Once you have he used to sleeping at the earlier time you can start staying up late.
