[quote=Anonymous]Oldest DS was always like this. Part of it was blood sugar, and part of it was he was just not a "morning" person. He always was and still is very slow to wake up. I don't know if it actually works, but I try to make wake ups as natural as possible. ie: brighten room, move blankets, rub back, etc. Sometimes just sitting for a bit after wake up helps too. He's 5 now and no longer naps but in the morning when he gets up he typically walks to the couch or a chair and sits there for a while before being ready to eat breakfast and get dressed. With his brother if being gradual doesn't work he'll just go back to sleep. So I'll sit him up, pedal his legs, move him to another room, etc.[/quote]
